Submissions are now closed for 2024!

 

We're thrilled to announce the second show of The Great British Striptease! Following the success of last year’s gala, we’re introducing a fresh twist inspired by the iconic 1980 Great British Striptease contest. This year, we're shaking things up in the Burlesque community and we want YOU to be a part of it.

Why Compete?
 

Guaranteed Payment: Every participant will receive a minimum fee of £100, with potential increases based on ticket sales.
 

Tipping Dollars: Share in the tipping dollars collected during the event.

Recognition for All: All 8 participants will leave with a unique title, a video of their act, their fee, and their share of tips. We celebrate everyone’s art and effort!

 

Inclusive Participation: Open to all experience levels—beginners, seasoned performers, and even retirees!
 

No Application Fee: We believe in accessible opportunities, so there's no fee to apply.

Judges & Audience Choice: Titles assigned by a panel of three judges from the burlesque and sex work communities. Plus, an Audience Choice Award!

Travel Support: Potential travel expense coverage within the UK, subject to funding. 

How to Apply:

Submit Your Act: Send us a full video of the act you plan to perform. Rehearsal studio videos are acceptable if in full costume. We cannot accept fire or aerial. But we do accept pole performances!
