La Bordello Boheme

Well well,

Since March there has been a new night in sunny Brighton town, La Bordello boheme, a brain child of myself, Coco Deville and Veronica Blacklace.

We have created a night that has been a lot of fun to be a part of and seems to be attracting the attention of some very interesting and amazing people!

Our monthly nights started in March with La Bordello Boheme A night in the Opium Garden with special guests Bea Devil and Fifi Fatale

I debuted my Humming Bird act which went down a treat, the costume took so long to create but was well worth it, along with my giant flower now referred to as 'the beast'

Tigz Rice the very talented photographer, you will have seen her in previous posts, was interviewed in a magazine and I was the little fleshy thing on the front cover

White Mink

I had the pleasure once again of working with the lovely Nick Hollywood and his electro swing night White Mink, new venue at the Haunt.

Some cracking bands, dj's and acts and I performed free style along with nick to one of his much loved tracks, it worked really well and was a real pleasure to dance to

The Steam Punk HiddenTaxidermist

A very interested night where I shared a stage with a lot of post living creatures, mainly birds but a few rabbits, ferrits and squirrals amongst other little beasties...

A show run by the fantastic Tarik Elmouwaki, a fellow Brightoner, at his theatre The Marlborough, a strange place with a lot of character.

I love this man, he is fantastic and has a real eye for all things retro, kitch and burlesque, with a house filled with genuine vintage costumes, headdresses, tassels and glitter. I was a child in sweet shop!!

In a series of costumes, sets props and poses we spent a good few hours creating and playing with lights, fabrics and looks.

Here is a small collection of what we came up with...

More are to follow soon...

Wam Bam

I was very pleased to be back at WamBam as I love the venue and the crowd are always delightful, I debuted my new 'Ziegfeld Carnie' act here a couple of months ago...

Filmed by the lovely Earl of Ealing, it's the first outing of this act so is still a bit creaky here and there, but it's getting there now.

It has been some time...

It has been quite some time since my last blog, so I thought I would take a little moment to update this old thang...
