- It was amazing!!! Such a great show!
- Really delightful show. Sexy and funny.
- Incredible show! I’m going to get tickets to see it again!
- fantastic show, great set and a great fun energy. 10/10
- Amazing energy!
- Great show!
- We had so much fun! Talented dancers, witty emcee, detailed costuming. and a lot of crowd engagement. Would definitely go again as-is and hope they introduce a new program to see in the future.
- This was one of the best shows we have seen. The performers are so good and the set and costume designs are awesome. Our faces hurt from the smiling and laughing we did.
- great experience! I have not laughed that hard in a really long time! everyone needs to see this show!
- You will regret not going - 10/10, I literally bought tickets to go again in 2 weeks during the show so I could see the majesty of it again!
- This Is hands down the best show I've ever seen. The dancers did an amazing job, the sets and production value were so well thought out, and the lights and costumes were out of this galaxy. Cheeky good fun with loads of laughs and delight. I can't wait to see it again!
- Hey wife and I had a blast 10 out of 10 I would strongly recommend you go see it
- The dancing was beautiful and exciting. The props were first rate. I always thought that audiences remained silent in burlesque, but this audience was rowdy and this was encouraged by the MC. I felt I was in a strip club. However, the artistry of the performers was thoroughly enjoyable. Maybe there could be a program with their names; they deserve the recognition. Wonderful show.
- I really enjoyed the show for my first time. The costumes and props were well done. The cast of the show were on point and well choreographed. Han solo and Chewbacca were a delight to see. Those guys were great. Mid show was a bit slow paced before it ramped up into the show finale. Will definitely recommend and look forward to attending another showing. Might also wanna check shirt sizes at the merch booth. They run small. Bought a 2x. Tried it on at home. Fits like a shmedium.
