Burlesque at Courtesan ◊ VICKY BUTTERFLY ◊
___________________________________________________________
Live performances from 10:30pm by internationally renowned, etheral beauty Vicky Butterfly.
Whether it’s clouds of butterflies that fly out from her clothes as she hovers en Pointe, a Kinetic glittering crescent moon or a Lynchian slant on Weimar era erotic dance, Vicky Butterfly’s beautifully choreographed routines take in everything from the ethereal and the breath-taking to the macabre and the erotic: with inspirations including Anita Berber, Loie Fuller, the Marchesa Luisa Casati and Maya Deren, her poetic and retro-futuristic performances evoke influences from the Pre-Raphaelites and French literature to Surrealism and more….
____________________________________________________________
Courtesan is a secret gem located in the vibrant heart of Brixton. A late-night cocktail bar, serving innovative, modern dim sum, with decor inspired by 1920’s Shanghai and a distinctly Lynchian atmosphere. Expect the unexpected.
Open late weekends.

BELLA DE JAC
All the way from Australia!
Glamour queen, party girl and powerhouse of the Australian Burlesque Industry Bella de Jac brings a formidable weight of experience to the stage.
With a ridiculous number of titles, awards, and headlining tours under her belt, she maintains a careful balance of utter debauchery with serious hard work.
Bella is Miss Burlesque Australia 2015, and a strong advocate for body-positive, sex- positive, feminist performance art. She has sung, danced and acted her way across Australian and international stages from Melbourne to New York, London and beyond.
Taking out both #31 and #50 in the 2016 & 2017 21st Century Burlesque Top 50, headliner of countless tours, co-director of BEAST and Bitch Stole My Act, and winner of a slew of awards including the most recent, The Australian Burlesque Lifetime Achievement Award, Bella has been a key figure within the Australian Burlesque Industry for over a decade.
Described as both an exquisite creature and a powerful and captivating performer, Bella’s penchant for pushing acceptable social boundaries is cleverly disguised by the grace and glamour of her shows.
“Bella de Jac’s appearances (were) the standout” Jamie Wright, New Adelaide Theatre Guide
“…a proficient and sensual tease” Jim Hildich, Rip It Up “infernally good”…“Absinthe.com.au
“Bella de Jac, reincarnated (…) into a devastatingly sensual dancer. Her performance was the most complex, and by far the best.” Joanna Bowen, Australian Stage
