Hot on the heels of a world tour, the smash hit of festivals everywhere returns home! Revved up with a wild mix of new acts, all time favourites and fabulous guest stars, Finucane and Smith’s Burlesque Hour… She’s Back!

The Italians gave it 10 standing ovations in one night “Fantastico” (Il Piccolo).

Edinburgh gave it 5 stars “Hottest temptation of the festival”(The Scotsman).

It stormed Slovenia’s major cultural centre “Intensive and hairsplitting physicality” (Dnevnik News), and sold three times the tickets available in Croatia  “Transgressive, razor sharp and explosive”(Novi, Croatia).

Tokyo hipsters crowded Yokohama’s waterfront to witness “a fantastically indecent and breath-taking night!!” (Wander Distance Magazine Japan), and New Zealanders were left “gobsmacked and hungry for more”(Taranaki Daily News).

With New Acts! & More Stars!
+ Join internationally acclaimed Queen of Cabaret Bizarre Moira Finucane
+ Japanese shock cabaret artiste Yumi Umiumare
+ circus and burlesque star Azaria Universe
+ infamous and legendary iconoclast Maude Davey And
+ the all-dancing all-dangerous nunchaku go go girls The Town Bikes!

Last year Melbournians snatched up every last ticket to this luscious salon … Don’t you miss out! Your table awaits!
