Glamour, Glitter und Katastrophen auf High-Heels!
Die Travestiehelden aus Brisbane lassen Aussie-Humor,
preisgekrönte Zirkusnummern und Frivolitäten
aufeinander prallen und erobern ihr Publikum
weltweit im Sturm.
Hunde-Show-Satire, intime Jo-Jo-Tricks, Windmaschinen,
Spektakel à la Busby Berkeley, Seilspringen und
Tanznummern, die die besten Stripper erblassen lassen.
Kurzum: ein wildes Potpourri aus Burlesque, Trash und
Artistik.
Publikumsliebling Fez Faanana a.k.a. Shivannah hat
wieder einige neue Tricks parat, führt lässig durch die
Show und bändigt die chaotische Truppe. Der in Las
Vegas preisgekrönte Mark Captain Kidd Winmill, gibt den
fabelhaften Vogel im goldenen Vogelbad. Die stürmische
Dallas Dellaforce verhilft Drag-Artistik zu neuen Höhen.
Der einzigartige Thomas Worrell setzt die Grenzen der
Schwerkraft außer Kraft. Evil Hate Monkey ist tierisch
und komisch, die herrlich erfrischende Zirkusgöre Louis
Biggs bezaubert nicht nur durch ihr Können und Lachlan
Shelley ist wieder DER charmante Mann für alle Fälle ...!
