House of Burlesque: Overture

House of Burlesque: Overture is a burlesque show, a form of staged performance combining striptease, comic timing and theatrical costume. The title places it as an overture, an introductory piece that presents the project's style and performers to a London audience.

The production is staged in the QT venue, a space in London that hosts concerts and shows. The performance is given on stage before a seated or standing audience, depending on the arrangement of the room on the night, and it is played as a single presentation rather than as a series of acts with an interval. Its tone is entertaining and playful, with the emphasis on performance, music and visual presentation.

The show suits adult audiences who are interested in burlesque and cabaret-style entertainment. It is a night out for those who enjoy live performance with a sense of spectacle and humour, and it introduces the House of Burlesque name to new spectators.
