Why see Burlesque?
SHow me how you burlesque!
Welcome to Burlesque! The iconic 2010 film which shimmied from screen to stage is now heading out on tour! Set in a struggling burlesque lounge at the mercy of big-shot developers, the titular Burlesque is a titillating tale of rivalries, relationships, and revelry as witnessed by newbie Ali. With her own dreams of stardom propelling her forward, can her talents help to keep the club afloat?
Featuring songs from the movie's star Christina Aguilera (who also executive produces), SIA, and Dianne Warren, plus a creative team that includes direction and choreography from Nick Winston, it's time to dig out your stockings and feather boas and show a little more for this exciting West End premiere!
