Overview

Ever wanted to experience an American 1950s nightclub? For three nights only, Little Egypt's Speakeasy at Camelot Lounge's Django Bar might just be the closest you'll get to the real thing.

Inspired by a real character from the era, exotic dancer Little Egypt, Little Egypt's Speakeasy is a "rhythm and blues burlesque concert drama" and tells the story of Little Egypt and her gang as they try to save their beloved Phoenix club from redevelopment.

The show's predecessor, Little Egypt's Burlesque featured at Sydney Festival in the Spiegeltent in 2012 and then had a follow up run at The Basement the year after. And with a cast covering '50s classics from Fats Domino, Big Mama Thornton, Ray Charles and The Coasters, as well as some original compositions, you know you're in good hands.

For burlesque with a side of soul, look no further.
