Neil Hughes, The Cinnamon Club, Vintage Burlesque Night, Cheshire
The show was superb at The Cinnamon Club on several occasions in 2010/11. We stepped back in time and transformed the club into a dimly lit Speakeasy which was brought to life by 52 Skidoo and The Bombshells. Always authentic, 52 Skidoo are a three piece Harlem swing band that turn back the clock to play the dazzling repertoire of Fats Waller in the style for which it was written. The Bombshells are feathered felines with twirling tassels, they shimmy a saucy striptease, comical “can can” plus many more... A fun loving package smothered in pouts and poses. They've been such a hit with our audiences that we've asked them back many times, it's always a sell out and never dissappoints.
