NZ Grand Dame of Burlesque 80th Birthday Show at The Meteor

New Zealand’s Grand Dame of Burlesque 80th Birthday Show at The Meteor, Saturday 28 May

Celebrating New Zealand’s Grande Dame of burlesque - Miss Chevious Cinders 80th year with a dazzling homegrown burlesque show. Featuring specially invited fabulous guest performers from around NZ and the birthday girl herself, the glittering artistes will give you a memorable night of fun, surprise, frivolity and hilarious entertainment.

Miss Chevious Cinders, or Cindy as others may know her, is a well known character in the New Zealand burlesque industry. Winner of the 2014 New Zealand Burlesque Festival’s Golden Garter Award for “Favourite Industry Groupie”, Cindy is a familiar face around the country, as she travels to support burlesque shows, festivals and workshops. While Cindy is retired, she still manages to travel on a shoestring to offer her support and is often seen working at shows on the door or in the audience, if she isn’t performing in one of her many any acts such as ‘The Pink Panther’ featuring a Disney like Pink Panther costume.

Cindy’s dream is to travel to Las Vegas where the mecca of all Burlesque events takes place ‘Burlesque Hall of Fame’ after a generous ‘Give-a-little’ fundraising campaign and some proceeds from the show – Cindy will live the dream when she flies out to Las Vegas to celebrate her 80th birthday.

Fabulous MC Miss Gloriousole will whip local burlesque performers; Miss Ooh La La Paree, Bettsy Rose Lee, Ms Tittle Tattle, Sugar Spanx, The Ginger Kisses,Midnight Mistress plus QTeas from Rotorua and the gorgeous Miss Cherry Lashes from Auckland into shape for what will promise to be an historic show for the NZ Burlesque community.
