Hocus Pocus Theatre produced the NO STRINGS Burlesque & Cabaret Club shows and Boogaloo for many years, programming some of the country's best international cabaret and burlesque artists so they really know their stuff. As a company we cut our teeth on the cabaret circuit and dabbled in a little burlesque but always with tongue firmly in cheek! These acts are available to book for cabaret and pop up performances at a variety of events.

 

MINSKY - COMIC STRIP

When clown collides with burlesque it makes a beautiful mess! This cute clown is about to hit town with a new pair of shoes and teach us the art of subverting sexy. Battling with the blues we see all her human flaws laid bare and she finds that laughter really is the best medicine. With bespoke vintage inspired harlequin costume and a comedy strip to Ella Fitzgerald's 'Aint Got Nothing But The Blues', the piece includes balloon swallowing and a squirting flower finale. (5 mins)
