Event information

Heresy n Heelz “By the Sea” - Cutting-Edge Burlesque @ Concorde 2, Brighton

with live music from The Graveyard Johnnys

Friday 5h August 2011 9pm – 3am

Come and joint the UK’s most Decadent night of Cutting-Edge Burlesque & Alternative Culture, as Heresy n Heelz present their first “On Tour” event of 2011 by the sea in Brighton. The 600 capacity Concorde 2 is a stunning Regency Pavilion overlooking the seafront, and is Brighton’s leading live music & club venue.

Dress up in style to impress, titillate or even shock, and join in one of the most decadent nights in the UK. Heresy n Heelz events are legendary for their outrageously dressed crowd and professionally produced and frequently risqué stage shows, not to mention a whole array of stalls, sideshow performers, gorgeous hospitality staff and much much more !

This show brings you some of the UK’s top performers, headlined by London’s Slinky Sparkles & Marnie Scarlet, compèred by Jim Devereaux and features a performance installation from Engineers of Desire that will leave you speechless.

To put the flag on the sandcastle, and keep with the Cutting-Edge theme, we also are very proud to present a live set from Psychobilly Legends the “Graveyard Johnnys” :

"Graveyard Johnnys play 1950s-inspired rock'n'roll with the firepower of punk and metal. They have a drummer whose face is masked by a bandana and the most violent abuse of a stand-up double bass I've ever seen. Seriously. " ManchesterMucic.com
