Hubble Bubble, Toil and Trouble....

If you go down to West Street Live on Sunday the 4th of September you're sure of a big surprise...

It's Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque's House of Horrors, where you will be met with flames of fire from pursed red lips.  The beautiful Dolly Monster will breathe fire onto the streets of Sheffield as you wait to enter our truly terrible house of horrible.

Seriously spooky cigarette girls will dish lashings of candy upon you as they usher you into the House of Horrors and then you will meet a twisted creature on stilts - the gruesomely gorgeous Raven DeVille!  Raven will show you the way to our palm reader, Momma O'Growl, and her scarily accurate readings will leave you with a chill down your spine and a lump in your throat.  Then, why not visit our Secret Parlour where you can get made up as Frankenstein's monster or a voluptuous vampire?  To book a place in our parlour please email info@secretsoftheboudoirburlesque.com.

After your mad make-over, you can browse our vintage stalls including Imogen's Imagination, Molly Rouge and Mad Hatters Cupcakes, then it will be time for our show to begin.

Grisly ghouls, mental monsters and twisted tricksters will crawl out from the dressing room and onto our stage to provide you with frightening forms of burlesque, vaudeville, striptease, circus, cabaret, dance and freak-show.  With Russian Roulette, The Tattooed Lady, a bed of burlesque nails, glass-walking, a Werewolf, a live execution, straight-jackets, gigantic needles, a mad Nurse, a Ghostbuster and a pair of piano playing dolls.  Plus, many, MANY more creatures from the crypt.

Join us....

If you dare...

Admission only £6 in advance from www.secretsoftheboudoirburlesque.com, or £8 on the door.

Welcome to our nightmare.  

Enter our Boudoir and then Peek into our Parlour...

Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque are opening 'The Secret Parlour' for our 'House of Horrors' on the 4th of September 2011 at West Street Live in Sheffield.  You can purchase your admission to the show here: http://secretsoftheboudoirburlesque.com

Once you have entered our boudoir, grab yourself a cocktail from the bar and head on over to the parlour for a serious pampering...or a blood-spattering!  We will have make up artists, hair stylists and special effects experts waiting to make you over especially for our House of Horrors.

You can opt for a vintage look - going for gorgeously glamorous, or you can opt for a spectacularly spooky look like that of Vampira or Mrs. Munster.  Failing that, why not dress yourself in wounds and fake blood and become gruesomely grotesque?
