This event has finished

Australian Burlesque queen Imogen Kelly has pieced together the nation's burlesque history – from Elizabeth Burton to the tease stars of today – for this one-night only strip down memory lane.

Judith Lanigan (Go Go Burlesco), Tiger Lil (Tarnished, The Happy Sideshow), Glita Supernova (Gurlesque, Pretty Peepers), Christa Hughes (Go Go Burlesco, Machine Gun Fellatio), Tasia and The Go Gets, Lola The Vamp and many more will all be along for the history lesson, and archive footage and recreations will help set the scene.

This is sure to be a very educational and tantalising evening, indeed!
