A cast of locally and internationally celebrated burlesque performers will be steaming up the Studio Theatre at the ACT in a cabaret style show for up-close burlesque storytelling.
Bells and Whistles Burlesque will feature a taste of music, drag, and a copious serving of classic burlesque. The show gives a nod to the rich history of burlesque, celebrating the provocative allure, the slow reveal, the opulent costumes, and fancy props such as fans, silks, boas, and gloves.
The show will be curated in the tradition of burlesque aesthetic, but with a modern artistic messaging. All types of bodies, genders, ages, and abilities will be on the stage.
Bells and Whistles Burlesque will be a fun and extravagant night on the town, and brings adult fun and entertainment to Maple Ridge. It is a perfect night out with friends or a date night sure to impress.

SPECIAL GUEST PERFORMER:
We will also be welcoming an international guest, Dulce D’Jour. Dulce has been serving face, fabric, and funk since her burlesque debut in 2018. Her smoldering eyes and thick caramel thighs have attracted the attention of audiences all over the Pacific Northwest and beyond.
Dulce has peeled from coast to coast, bringing her expressive face and fluid movement style to the Pacific Northwest Burlesque Festival, where she placed third in the Monarch competition. Her expert musicality and funky flair earned her featured performer slots at What the Funk Festival 2022 and the RVA Burlesque Festival in 2023.
