An Evening of Burlesque is for over-18s only and show’s producer, Michael Taylor, says:
“It’s the slickest, wickedly wittiest, most delightfully-choreographed cabaret spectacular of the year. Prepare for the ultimate in glamorous nights out where dance, comedy, mischief, music, magic, frivolity and fun collide – so dress up and come to the cabaret.”

* Bettsie Bon Bon stars in An Evening of Burlesque. Bettsie is definitely not just a pretty face. An one-time Lloyds underwriter with a law degree, Bettsie is tease, glamour and naughtiness personified;
