Residents are invited to attend An Evening of Burlesque and take part in some cabaret fun at the Thameside Theatre, in Orsett Road, Grays, in November.

The cast of the burlesque show were refreshed for 2014 and promise to entertain the audience with a cheeky show.

The fun-filled night will represent London’s flourishing burlesque scene arriving in Thurrock direct from the West End.

The show has already experienced great success, including a 100-date overseas tour taking in Milan, Zurich, St Petersburg, Minsk, Leipzig, Verona, Dresden, Riga, Padova and Dessau.

During the show, the Royal Academy-trained dancers slip into exotic characters to entertain the audience with a cuttingedge show.

The different themes you can expect include evocative Arabian nights, fabulous fan-dancing fantasies, foxy Forties sirens, bubblegum- blowing baseball babes and cheesecake pinups.

The audience is also invited to take part in dressing up.

The show is for anyone aged 18 and over and takes place on Thursday, November 20, at 8pm.
