WHAT’S ON
NAUGHTY NIGHT OF BURLESQUE AUSTRALIA’S favourite trash glamour disco circus is on its way with Dirty Laundry, the naughtiest show yet.

Expect risqué fan dancing, lightning quick quips, and seriously sexy stunts. The burlesque boys show is for 18-plus audiences. Redland Performing Arts Centre, Cleveland. October 29 and 30. Tickets from $32. Bookings call RPAC Box Office 3829 8131 or visit rpac.com.au (booking fees $5 by phone and $6 online.
