Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque Does Oxjam

On October the 16th, Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque Does Oxjam at West Street Live, Sheffield, UK.

Flyer Designed by John Slater, featuring Deadly Nightshade.


This year, Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque has decided to become involved with Oxjam - Britain's largest music festival which aims to provide money for Oxfam. SotBB wants to bring lashings of burlesque into Oxjam and will be providing an event filled with just that, plus, plenty of cabaret, as well as the usual mix of striptease, vaudeville, comedy and dance.

Starring:

Tiffany Beau,

Von Vamp,

Foxie Le Roc,

Cadillac Arrest,

Lacie May,

Danni La Blue,

Deadly Nightshade,

Sian De Leir,

Depravity Jane

With Cabaret from:

Lady Ella,

Miss Moonlight,

Evie Farrah and Cassie Devine,

Mistress Mimi

and

Knickerbockerglory.


Compered by the delicious, Duke O'GGGGGGrowl.


It seems fitting to raise money for a charity which began in 1942 to provide relief for World War 2 civilians, and is currently helping to empower women in impoverished countries. To us, these two things are what burlesque is all about - era's gone by - especially post-wartime 1940's/50's, and the empowerment and liberation of women.

We just had to get involved!

With a record number of SotBB performers, and burlesque starlets from all across the country gracing our stage, our Oxjam event promises to be our biggest yet.

With vintage stalls, our BIGGEST EVER RAFFLE, and a prize for the best dressed guest, why not dress as glamorously as you possibly can and come along to help raise plenty of money for Oxfam?


Admission can be purchased at £6 from Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque, or at £8 on the door.


Sunday the 16th of October 2011. 7.00pm - Midnight.


West Street Live,

128 West Street,

Sheffield,

S1 4ES.

Please note: Tickets WILL NOT be posted out to you before the show, instead your name will be added to a guest list and you will be stamped into our venue upon arrival at our show.
