From executive producer Christina Aguilera and written by Steven Antin, based on the hit movie, Burlesque invites you to a club like no other: a hidden world beneath the city lights where sequins sparkle, seduction shimmers and lives can change in the flick of a feather boa. When Ali arrives in New York searching for the mother she never knew, she stumbles upon a dazzling underground scene alive with music, movement, and mystery.
Drawn into this intoxicating world, she begins to uncover her extraordinary voice — and finds an unexpected family of dreamers, misfits and schemers who will change her life forever. The UK tour stars Faye Brookes (Coronation Street, Chicago) as Tess Richarde, alongside Ryan Carter (Titanique, Ain’t Too Proud) playing Sean and Ms Loretta. Recent graduate Gracie O’Brien makes her professional stage debut in the role of Ali Rose, supported by Davide Fienauri (Kiss of the Spider Woman, Moulin Rouge) as Vince, Tyler Davis (Sunset Blvd, Back To The Future) playing Jackson and Vanessa Ela Young (The Drifters Girl, Moulin Rouge) as Nikki. Burlesque is a scintillating journey of self-discovery that absolutely sizzles, featuring powerhouse songs by Christina Aguilera, Sia and Diane Warren, alongside new numbers from Todrick Hall and Jess Folley.
