Merry Christmas to you our dear Customers!

Have we got a tinsel-covered treat for you! !!
Father Christmas is going to be stuffing BOTH your stockings in December 2020!
For the first time ever, The Star Bazaar will be hosting two shows! That’s right, TWO SHOWS! Two consecutive nights of frolicking festive fun! Deck the halls with this double ding dong!

Dates:
Friday the 18th of December 2020 and Saturday the 19th of December 2020
Make sure to book your tickets for your preferred night, or come along to both!

Performers:
*** AUNTY MAE. A tart with a heart…and rampant syphilis. From the music halls of Victorian London to the darkened alleys outside, Aunty Mae has been enthralling the public in various ways since 1846, either with a saucy song, a tall tale or anything else you can afford (charges by the minute). Dressed to the nines in her least-stained bloomers, she’ll have you rolling in the aisles and then nipping round the back for a half-price special!

*** BETTY BLUE-EYES. Betty is a vaudeville chameleon of glamorous comedy character burlesque. Betty creates tales of the unexpected for burlesque and cabaret audiences. She is a comedy cabaret chameleon with unique acts filled with curious characters, quirky storytelling and glamorous comedy. And yes, before you ask, her eyes are blue!

*** KITTY RIBBONS. Expect the Unexpected from this Pocket Rocket of Burlesque! An Award Winning, International Actress and Performer. Bewitching and hypnotic, charming and sassy, this teasingly uninhibited sweetheart will always delight.

*** ATHERIA HART. The Star Bazaar’s own visionary performance artiste extraordinaire. Atheria’s passion is to create and perform, so she loves living in her magical world and choosing which ideas to bring to life in the pursuit of entertainment. Atheria will be bringing her own unique brand of excitingly theatrical burlesque and transporting you into her world.

*** STARLA BRIGHT. The Star Bazaar’s very own starlet and ‘Bubble Gum Beauty Queen’ Starla Bright’s unique brand of cheesecake comedy burlesque has a cheeky feel, reminiscent of Carry-On film style humour. The characters and stories told in Starla’s acts are always amusing, and sure to entertain. True to her name, Starla is twinkly and she comes out at night, feel free to make a wish on her, you never know, it may come true!

*** THE STAR BAZAAR. Starla & Atheria’s classic burlesque double act is back with a bloomin’ big bang! See them gleefully caper about the stage with Christmas abandon. Hang on to your cracker hats; it’s going to be a wild sleigh ride!

*** FLIXX DÉMONTRANT. We are thrilled that boylesque superstar Flixx Démontrant has finally been convinced to come out of retirement! He’s dusting off his top hat and donning his frog feet, just for The Star Bazaar’s Christmas Double Ding-Dong! So exciting!
