THE BURLESQUE HOUR - Glory Box Edition


Sydney welcome to a world of nudity and loud tunes to start your weekend or get you all foxy mid week, yes the Glory Box Edition of the Burlesque Hour is here at Sydney's Seymour Centre.

My only experience with Burlesque was seeing the wonderful Christina and Cher film of the said genre name "Burlesque" and let's say this is a long shot away from that.

My favourite act in the first half was the balloons act which if you see it you will probably love this also.  The second act for me lost the steam the first act built as I could have done without the interval and maybe just enjoyed an hour or so straight through.

Intervals for me unless the show is overly long creates a time for you to drift and lose where you are at.

The show has a strange but fun if you wanna get up and dance finale and the venue itself was turned into some Spiegeltent type experience with Saigon lanterns, cabaret tables on the stage and at times lot's of wild water everywhere.

This was an enjoyable evening and a nice peek at Burlesque, it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea and I really do think like film editing and keeping things tight are the key.

Overall 3,5 feather boas for the Burlesque Hour - Glory Box Edition
