With all ninety-nine seats sold out, the theatre buzzed with anticipation as guests dressed to impress and settled in for an unforgettable night of burlesque magic.

Guiding the evening with effortless wit, charm and style was the incomparable Khandie Khisses, a true star of the UK burlesque scene. Bringing flair, flirtation and fabulous banter, she moved seamlessly between performances with her signature charisma. From cheeky one-liners to heartfelt tributes to the art of tease, her stage presence created an atmosphere that felt both intimate and electric. She was not simply the host of the evening, but the golden thread that wove the entire night together.

Behind the lens, Grace Elkin Photography captured every shimmer, shimmy and smouldering glance. With an exceptional eye for detail, Grace preserved both the artistry of the performers and the adoration of the audience, ensuring the magic of the night would live on long after the curtain fell.

The show opened with elegance and sensual control as Fifi Whispers from Hull Harlots graced the stage with a sultry ostrich fan routine to Need Your Love So Bad by Fleetwood Mac. Dressed in a striking red and black babydoll with long, glossy red gloves, she glided across the stage with regal poise. Her glove peel was slow, deliberate and hypnotic. As the music swelled, her fans took centre stage, delicate yet commanding, each precise flutter and flick leaving the audience mesmerised. It was a timeless reminder of the enduring beauty of fan dance.

Laughter and high energy followed as Harley Queen and Phoenix Rose of Selby Starlets delivered a comedic yet seductive take on Single Ladies by Beyoncé. Entering in leopard print dressing gowns, hair turbans and satin pink pyjamas, the duo began with a cheeky confetti pour using cocktail glasses.

Their finale saw pyjama tops ripped open to reveal glittering pasties, earning roaring applause and enthusiastic whistles from the crowd.

Returning to the stage with refined glamour, Delicious Denise from Selby Sirens captivated the audience with her performance to When You’re Good to Mama.

Her delicate fan work contrasted beautifully with the steamy soundtrack, drawing audible sighs from the audience and leaving a lasting impression of elegance and restraint.

Dark drama took centre stage as Beltane Bette of Doncaster Divas presented her daring interpretation of Enter Sandman by Metallica. The stage was transformed into a childhood bedroom scene complete with blanket, teddy, and robe.

When the lights dimmed once more, the audience returned to their seats with eager smiles and wide-eyed expectation.

The second half burst into life as Vanilla Silk of Selby Sirens opened with a seductive chair routine to Believer by Imagine Dragons.

Laughter and high camp comedy followed as The Double Ds, Bella Diamond, and Pixie Dust of Goole Goddesses delivered a hilarious balloon pop routine to Splish Splash.
