We hope our Grotto warmed your cockles!

Thank you to all who attended our Christmas Grotto last night!

It was lovely to see you all inside our Grotto looking glamorous, keeping warm and having fun!

We hope you got a chance to browse our superb stalls: Mad Hatters, Imogen's Imagination, The Dollhouse and the Vintage Salon, before settling down to watch some fabulous burlesque, dance, striptease and cabaret!

Amidst the tables and the tinsel we saw a strange and enchanted dwarf who soon turned our attentions to the frosty Ice Queen Scarlett D'Lyte!  During her mystical routine, Scarlett transformed our venue into the magical land of Narnia.  Creative, imaginative, beautiful and captivating, a personal favourite of mine, this performance truly chilled us, thrilled us and thrust us directly into a winter wonderland!

We also had an amazing routine from the oh-so-beautiful Starla Bright who gave us a sweet and sexy treat in the form of a 'Candy Cane Christmas!  Equipped with a gigantic candy cane Starla took to the stage, tantalised and teased us with her cute dancing and her cheeky striptease!

Our Grotto would not be complete without a present from Santa and this present was delivered in the form of the ever-so-sexy Evie Farrah!  She came out of her Barbie box and showed us all what a big 'Ego' she had by shaking her thang and working us all into a sweat!  Evie later returned as our mean green Grinch and wreaked havoc on our stage, tearing up presents from underneath our Christmas tree!  You're a mean one Mrs. Grinch!

The Ashay Dance Troupe were a wonder to watch as they shimmied to 'Santa Baby' with grace and elegance like no other troupe we know!

Duke O'Growl remained as gorgeous as ever as he made a present of himself and his singing talent to Deadly Nightshade, Knickerbockerglory and Cherry Du Bois!  Knickerbockerglory got the pleasure of singing with The Duke earlier in the evening when the delicious duo gave us a wonderful rendition of 'Mommy Kissing Santa Claus' to get us in the Christmas mood! 

Cherry Du Bois and Scarlet Noir pointed out that 'Baby it's Cold Outside' and we should all come and warm ourselves, getting hot under the collar by watching Christmas twins frolic around our stage!

How can we forget our Marylin-esque beauty Sian de Lier who provided us with a naughty routine as she tore into a present of 'Red Shoes', danced around our stage uncontrollably and stripped down to her tassles!  She also returned to tease us as 'Jessica Snow Rabbit' - a vision in white with the voice of an angel!  Sian later came on stage to wish us all a 'Merry Little Christmas' before we went home to our warm beds!

And what 'Secrets' night would be complete without our delicious compere in fishnets and heels...the dashing Mr. Warren Peace?!  Warren made us laugh as he warmed our winter hearts with his witty banter and cabaret crooning!  A true credit to our shows!

Let us not forget to give a huge thank you to Rachael Parkes and Anwar Suliman, our photographers for the evening, and a huge round of applause to our venue and to Tam and Taz for putting up with me and my requests and my urge to hang Christmas decorations in the highest of places!  Let out a massive cheer for our D.J Mr. Vince Spitfire who provides us with the music for our events and has to deal with many strange music formats!

If you have any photographs or videos from our event, please add them to Facebook or send them to deadlynightshade@secretsoftheboudoirburlesque.com.  Our official photographs and videos will be up soon!

Merry Christmas everyone and a Happy New Year!
