Georges Hall on Saturday 11th December.

The Martini Lounge’s stockings are stuffed full to the brim with a bevy of jingle belles, promising an evening’s entertainment you’ll never forget. Join them as they tell their own Christmas tale, over a century after Charles Dickens gave his World Premiere reading of ‘A Christmas Carol’ on the very same stage.

Pioneer Dutch artiste Miss Beeby Rose will fly into Liverpool to showcase her unique style; mixing the elegance and poise of burlesque with a gypsy flavour. Founder of the Amsterdam Burlesque Festival, Beeby Rose brings teasing hip work and outrageous shimmies to her sensuous shows. From a Matahari temple dance with roses and veils, to delightful cake ballet inspired by Charlie Chaplin, this true virtuoso creates surprising and creative cabaret to keep your heart racing! Take a sneak peak  here

UK Burlesque Star Beau Rocks will be on hand to make all of your Christmas wishes in only the way that she can.  Glaswegian born Beau is reminiscent of a Vargas pin-up girl with a flirty smile and an unmistakably naughty sparkle in her eye. Her stage persona combines glamour with a heart-warming pinch of girl next door calamity… but don’t let her angelic features fool you as she has been known to make both men and women blush with a well-timed wink and bump of her hip! You can see a Beau Rocks’ show reel by clicking here

Gifts of Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh; The ladies of Merseyside’s all female a cappella group; Barbieshop, will also be in attendance to perform some of their stunning arrangements of Christmas songs old and new and all of your favourite, classic hits.  See a sneak peak here

The Martini Lounge treasures the satire and performance art that evolved since its 19th Century origins and has created a classy and delightfully ludicrous night of entertainment in the most pertinent venue to reflect this tradition. On the night guests will revel in an exclusive show program whilst enjoying a sumptuous two-course dinner that will tempt the taste buds prior to the evening performance, for which the circle seats will be opened.

The one and only Fred Bear will keep those mischievous minxes in check, in his role as compére, whilst entertaining the audience with his witty banter and unique brand of humour. Fred will also take to the stage to perform, promising a routine which is sure to both excite and delight those who attend.

The angel atop this stunning burlesque Christmas tree is the fabulous Millie Dollar, Liverpool’s very own Queen of Burlesque & founder of The Martini Lounge, who will step out to perform one of her infamous routines. With a mix of rock and roll, sleaze, a wink and a smile she will entertain and tease to your and her hearts’ content. Why not take a look here? A firm local favourite, Millie has been performing since 2006 and has specialised in Classic style Burlesque with tributes to Sally Rand, recently turning her hand to the raunchier side of Las Vegas style Bump and Grind.

Widely regarded as the must-see Burlesque showcase in the UK due to its sell-out status and devoted audience. Following a spectacular Halloween show, The Martini Lounge invites you to its biggest showcase of this kind yet; a festive night of glitz and glamour from a forgotten age. Join us as we bring an outstanding line-up of international Burlesque stars to the cultural city of Liverpool in the striking venue of St. George’s Hall, continuing this alluring series of shows.
