Flixx Démontrant comes to Secrets of the Boud'Yargggh! Burlesque

Flixx Demontrant
"Démontrant - from the French, meaning to demonstrate, prove, show, proclaim …and reveal. Flixx Démontrant certainly lives up to his name, for he is one of many up-and-coming Boylesque performers who are appearing on the burlesque and cabaret scene around the UK.  This is not just Boylesque, Flixx is taking it to a new level, with his character based acts that are often dark and comedic with a rock & roll attitude..."
Flixx
Described as "The Johnny Depp of Burlesque: Flixx holds his audience in his grasp" and he is coming to Secrets of the Boudoir Burlesque this March for our Pirate-themed Burlesque show.  Flixx will be coming in search of treasure and will be inviting you all to take a look at his bountiful 'booty' on the Secrets stage!

Flixx as Billy Dripp in persuit of treasure
As Flixx says, he likes to give his audience a story as well as a striptease: “My characters aren't just taking their clothes off for the sake of it, there’s a reason and a plot... Usually.  It’s not a strip-tease with a story, it’s a story with a strip-tease and although the acts have evolved over time, the story stays the same.”

Flixx 'Un-Hooked'
So come along to Secrets of the Boud'Yargggh! Burlesque on March 4th at West Street Live in Sheffield to see Flixx battle ghostly spirits in the hunt for treasure and get truly 'Un-Hooked' for your pleasure on our stage.

Admission: £7 in advance, £8 on the door from www.secretsoftheboudoirburlesque.com.
