From the Burly mouth: ‘Burlesque is Back stronger than ever…throughout history, burlesque often experienced something of a revival in times of crisis… such as the Great Depression, Second World War and now with the global economic crisis burlesque is back on top to make our life more exciting, more special and to spice up our nightlife… forget all the doom and gloom , have a good time and make new friends. Enjoy a night of full cabaret entertainment…show girls…music and much more… it’s an extravaganza…at a reasonable price.’
