Performers:

 

* Abigail Collins - (back by popular demand!)

 

After expelling herself from The Royal Ballet School, pint-sized comedy powerhouse Abigail Collins has become one of the leading lights on the London Cabaret circuit. Whether dancing Swan Lake on traffic cones as her Russian diva Katinka, or hooping up a storm as Angel Rodriguez, Brooklyn's answer to Beyoncé, Abigail's work is skillful, sexy and very, very silly. The physique of an athlete and the mouth of Joan Rivers - what's not to love?!

 

"The hilarious and flexible Abi Collins" - The Stage

"Hilariously executed routines... see her" - Film News UK

"Beat-perfect comic delivery" - The Erotic Review

 

 

* Johnny Eluxifer

 

Senors y Senoras!

Direct from the "Club Chupa Polla", Barcelona, The Lion of Latin lovers, the icon of Iberian illusions, the pulsing Peacock of porno prestigitation ... Tony Garrulo!

 

This Compere and performer has to be seen to be believed!

 

 

* Fanny Divine

Fanny Divine first tip-toed her way on to the Burlesque scene in early 2007 causing quite a stir with her quirky sense of humour and slapstick style. Inspired by everything from the old Victorian Freak Show, to 1960's Russ Meyer films her act list is full of original, inspiring ideas. Fanny has performed all over the UK and Europe, teasing and titillating audiences nationwide with her unique sense of humour and cheesecake charm.

 

* Mr. Mistress

 

Raised in a valley on a diet of cider and hearty pies, with a healthy musical balance of the Wurzels and Barbara Streisand, before running off to London to pursue the grand illusion known as a degree the result:

 

An alcoholic, pop obsessed, academic party princess and halfway-there drag queen with a tendancy to remove clothes in a public forum in the hope of causing a stir in the field of queer performance. Although more likely to be causing a stir in peoples undergarments.

 

It is trashy, it is beautiful, it is pretentious - it is Mr Mistress!
