Burly Q is a night dedicated to giving Northern fans the best possible burlesque experience, from the intimate venue in which you really feel part of the performance, to the fine eye for detail which goes into providing the finest in dance, comedy, DJ’s and musical entertainment. We offer experienced national acts who are at the forefront of the UK burlesque scene, alongside up and coming performers.  We draw inspiration from a variety of sources, but mainly from the 1920’s through to the 1950’s – from music hall to the Follies, MGM musicals to Minsky’s, via great burlesque queens and pin ups such as Bettie Page, to the spectacle of Busby Berkley.  The emphasis is on a knowing wink and the humour so ingrained in burlesque history – bawdy but never rude, a smattering of tease, but never crude! Prepare to don the clothes you always wished you had an occasion to wear, and to take a journey back to a more sophisticated time, leaving with a big smile on your face.  Like Gypsy Rose Lee our aim is to make you go away wanting more, and to make each event bigger and better than the last.  So hop aboard HMS Hepkat, and take a cruise from A to Q…
