The clips and images below show you a few of the productions by House of Burlesque Melbourne.
Summary of show: As part of the 2010 Melbourne Fringe Festival a talented cast of 25 actors and dancers weave a rich tapestry of dance, drama and music in “Burlesque through the Eyes of Minsky Malone”.
The first ever production showing you the history of Vaudeville Burlesque, with all the delicious eye popping visuals. The screenplay written by US Playwright Christopher Morrison (Cannes film and Academy Awards Credits) in collaboration with Minsky Malone (writer for National Gallery of Victoria Dali Show among a few others), combines story telling, poetry and performances and about the legends of the stage. Attendance figures went well with the show selling out except for the second night, reaching 80% capacity. The show can be adapted for all ages.
The editor of the following short clip dubbed a track over due to the theartre sound levels and for continuity being an extremely cut down version of the show. Most of the music in the shows were from local artists and independent artists. This applies to all the clips shown in this page.
House of Burlesque’s 2008 stage production 'Pandora's Dolls' presented as part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival.
Summary: Written and directed by Charlie Robinson founder of House of Burlesque - Pandora’s Dolls is a vaudeville burlesque interpretation of the legend of Pandora. Rather than opening a box to discover the evils within, Pandora has a giant key with which she wreaks havoc on the world when she winds up seven of her favorite toys, unleashing Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, Pride, Anger, Envy and Vanity as played by the performers in the below press flyer.
The show ran for 8 nights to a broad audience - 30 to 60 years of age. The second week of the show sold out the first week reached 70 to 90% capacity. Viewed by 3256 people over 8 nights.
The editor of the following short clip added a track over due to the theartre sound levels and being an extremely cut down version of the show.
House of Burlesque was commissioned by the National Gallery of Victoria for a performance in conjunction with the Dali Exhibition in 2009. A surreal script was written up and in two week 15 performers played out a vaudeville show about Dali’s life. The show was watched by all ages and it was the children who appreciated the surreal Daliesque show the most.
Once again the editor dubbed one of the shows tracks as an over dub due to the sound levels and being an extremely cut down version of the show.
