Translated 'The Pearl of Fire'.. Perth's very own 'spiegel tent' bought in 2011 by Artrage WA producers of the Fringe World Festival happening right now and for the next four weeks in Perth. Aimee and I were lucky enough to be invited to the opening night of Twisted Vaudeville Circus who are WA's very own premier circus cabaret show.. not in the spiegel tent (we will get there before the festival is over) but in one of the small threatre venues in Northbridge. It was so much fun, not the easiest situation for photos but I think you'll get the idea.. The host for the evening was the faaaabulous 'Panache' who would have put any quick change artist to shame, j'adore Panache!
Aerial Twist..'the superfreak'!
Direct from London deviant diva Bernadette Byrne and half moustachioed musician Victor Victoria together known as 'East End Cabaret'. A true diva entrance astride the backs of two burly young men plucked :) from the audience.....
'Mistress of Tease' Bella de Jac, Miss Burlesque Queensland.. you were divine daaarling !
The Vintage Reds getting physical.....
Last one for today made us laugh so much and prompted Aimee to update her Facebook status to 'When my mum asked me to go out to a fringe show tonight I really didn't expect to see so many testicles'.. I wasn't quite sure how to present the photo below to a wider audience.. somehow pink seemed most appropriate, I'm still laughing at the memory :) Hope that you've got a super weekend planned.. I'd like to stay in bed all weekend, but that's not going to happen. Take care.... Click here to see other 'Entries' from around the world.....

ReplyDeleteGreat shots of what appears to be riotously funny event. I love all the characters and costumes! Perth does it again!
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a "Chicago" review... or "Moulin Rouge". Ha! Lowell never mention the fairer sex. The Mrs. musta been lookin' over his shoulder.
Encore! Do love getting to see all this 'happening' stuff. Thanks - have a great W/E.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why I have never seen a burlesque performance. Your photos show what fun they must be.
ReplyDeleteVery frisky set of photos today, Grace. It must have been a pile of fun.
ReplyDeleteThere is now a new burlesque show in Hartford. I hope I remember to visit it with my camera when I get back in May.
This looks like fun...but if I tried what the woman in the third photo is doing, I'd end up in a body cast!
ReplyDeleteLooks like quite a show! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, Grace, fantastique! ;-) Hehe, had to laugh about the FB-update, even not seeing the pic!
ReplyDelete"Wow" is right. . .What a show. Colourful entrance.
ReplyDeleteThat name sounds very dutch indeed and funny you call it still a spiegeltent, instead of a mirror tent. The performances look very great, would love to see them all. Have fun.

ReplyDeleteI particularly like the capture of the shadow in the 4th photo.
