If you’re looking for a totally different Saturday night experience, this is for you. Expect a night like no other! The acts for your delectation will be:

KIKI DEVILLE

Half singer, half compere, half mathematician. Be not bedazzled by her glittering smile, or captivated by her comedic timing, yes, a woman of large 'talents' she may be, but don't let them detract from the incredible voice that lies beneath. Australian-born Miss Kiki DeVille (aka Kristianne Robinson) attributes her flawless and polished performances to over 25 years of professional international music industry experience. https://www.kikideville.com

SCARLETT DAGGERS

This rock'n'roll redhead will get you hot under the collar with her sizzling stage presence and megawatt smile. From a flag-wielding greaser-girl to a B movie Cobra Queen and even Robin Hood Scarlett loves to inject a sense of fun into her femme fatale.

With over 17 years’ experience on the cabaret circuit, Scarlett has performed across the UK and Europe and produces regular shows in Nottingham, Derby, Birmingham, Cardiff, Grimsby and Leeds. http://www.scarlettdaggers.com

LILLY SNATCHDRAGON

Award-winning Neo-drag queen burlesque performer/host based in Chester. Founder of The Bitten Peach, a queer Asian cabaret collective and LADS. Loves long walks on the beach, British passports and controversial S.E. Asian stereotypes.

MAT RICARDO

According to The Scotsman, Mat is “Undoubtedly one of the greatest variety artists working today”.

His 35+ year career saw him learn his craft as a street performer in London’s famous Covent Garden, before travelling the world's theatres, cabaret clubs and festivals, advancing and redefining his artform to become one of the most critically acclaimed and successful speciality acts there is. He is, to quote the London Evening Standard, “Breathtaking”.

His ground-breaking work merges physical and verbal comedy, storytelling, dance and, of course, his trademark spectacular feats of circus, magic and dexterity, all presented in a unique cocktail of cool, slick honesty. https://www.matricardo.com

TRIXIE BLUE

This International multi-award-winning burlesque enchantress, is highly acclaimed for her seductive prowess and jaw-dropping performances, captivating audiences for over 13 years.

Her repertoire showcases the beauty and debauchery of burlesque transgressive form, from fierce seduction in Trixie’s interpretation of Fran from the film Strictly Ballroom to her playful, sensual striptease acts. Not only this, Trixie is an established compère & show producer, hosting shows throughout the UK. Her academic prose, quick wit and terrible dating stories leave audiences giggling in their boots. https://trixie-blue.wixsite.com/trixieblue
