15th November- THE GALA 

 

We originally launched the Great British Striptease with an insane line up of performers and we want to do this again!

 

We're especially excited to see:

• Artistic, innovative, or seductive clothing removal – whether it’s full-glam burlesque or something more stripped back and intimate.

•  Acts with beautiful costumes and high polish, yes – but also those that bring stripping back to its basics: using your face, body, energy, and presence to hold a room.

•  Work that challenges, uplifts, or reclaims what striptease can be – whether it’s cheeky, sultry, political, or deeply personal.

 

This is a space for the full spectrum of strip artistry – from show glam to strip club. If your act speaks to that, we want to see it. We are wanting to showcase the best that the world of striptease has to offer from the burlesque and stripping communities.
