Docks Academy’s quarterly adventure into the beautiful world of burlesque is a showcase of the UK’s best modern burlesque artists who are the living embodiment of glamour, sophistication and empowerment. We guarantee a dazzling night of rhinestones, feathers and sassy strutting! With fabulous performances from four burlesque legends, fabulous costumes, under the watchful eye of your regular hostess Kiki Deville - BEERLESQUE revives this classic art form with a glamorous new show. If you’re looking for a totally different Sunday night experience just before Christmas, 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. www.kikideville.com

COCO DEVILLE

Critically acclaimed, award-winning burlesque performer Ms Coco Deville has over a decade of burlesque and cabaret experience and continues to captivate her audiences with her witty humour, dynamic dancing and theatrical manner. www.coco-deville.com

JON UDRY

There are jugglers. There are comedians. And there is Jon Udry.

Jon combines the two to such a brilliant effect that his unique performance has his audience roaring with laughter from entrance to the final curtain.

Formerly the British Young Juggler Of The Year and New Act of the Year Finalist 2018, Jon’s skills and stage persona have brought his show onto various television and radio shows, as well as being a regular on the bill at prestigious festivals like Glastonbury. Jon travels internationally, working on a host of luxury cruise lines, at festivals and events, and - due to his unique comedy style - his show is also at home on the domestic comedy club circuit.

Jon’s repertoire is not the normal type of speciality act - instead, it’s young, offbeat, quirky and hugely impressive. His current show ‘Jon Udry Punches Gravity in the Face’ is quickly becoming his most successful to date with a host of bookings around the UK, Europe and beyond. https://www.jonudry.com

TITSALINA BUMSQUASH

Some say she’s a Legend, others say she is a comedy genius – we say she’s a gobshite.

Titsalina grew up in a small village in the West Country where she spent valuable time scrumping apples and playing chicken with tractors. She’s always been a bit of a show-off and making people laugh is one of her most favourite things to do. So, at the ripe age of 18, she packed her bags and moved to Manchester to study a BA (Hons) in Acting…

After a few blurry student years in Manchester, Tits found a home there, and friends and BURLESQUE! From the moment she watched her first show, she was hooked; what can be better than glamour, comedy, AND nudity? This lit a fire in her belly more than any of those Brecht plays she’d been forced to study at Drama School! www.bumsquash.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 of 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. www.scarlettdaggers.com
