"... The Bump and Grindhouse’s debut ‘noir night of burlesque excess’ certainly did impress.
There was a range of activity buzzing in the atmosphere. From the friendly hubbub of chatter by the bar, to the assortment of finely dressed men and women lingering in anticipation for the first act. There were endearing stalls of dresses and corsetry to cater for the burlesque bombshell that bloomed within and an opportunity to capture that moment with a pose (or two!). The night itself suits anyone with a taste for an alternative appreciation of burlesque. One that wouldn’t be a stranger in the life of a Goth or rocker, which includes dressing to impress in anything from PVC or Rock-a-Billy to, what I decided to dress as, a Lolita.
The performers were fantastic and certainly entertained. Lily La Scala performed her foot slicing routine of walking on broken glass. Miss Pink ‘n’ Fluffy also caught eyes with her neo-burlesque performance which was laced with a fetish twist and Miss Golden Delicious performed her signature act of being Eve, of the Garden of Eden.
I have been waiting a while for a night like this to emerge, so I had to come and see what it was all about. Granted, I was not able to stay the whole night, which I regret soulfully, yet I will definitely be coming back, with reinforcements! (Ok, the rest of the burlesque society!) Bring on more Bump ‘n’ Grindhouse!..."Written By Laura Cracknell (A.K.A Violette Haze) from Ruskin Uni Burlesque Soc
