Returning to Ventnor Fringe with a new larger venue, following sold out performances in 2023!
After an administrative error double books Opera Diva Belinda and Burlesque Showgirl Elsie, they must find a way to share the stage. Fireworks fly but after exploring each other's art forms and putting their class differences aside they realise that they have more in common than they think. Featuring gorgeous costumes, opera bangers, audience interaction and striptease, this is a fun and flirty exploration of being a woman in the spotlight.
Belinda Williams is an international opera singer, hailed by Montserrat Caballé as having a “beautiful voice and marvellous line”. She has appeared across Europe and America singing soprano roles from Mozart, Verdi and Puccini. She is the Women’s Radio Future Classic Woman of the Year and appears regularly on television.
Elsie Diamond is a Burlesque Artist, Cabaret host and Singer that Danny Dyer has described as having "a good old fashioned pair of Lils". She has performed worldwide from Sao Paulo to Scunthorpe in Theatres, Festivals and Cabarets. She has written and performed two one-woman shows; 'The Sensible Dresser' and 'The Sensible Undresser'. Belinda and Elsie met many years ago in the South of France and entered into a Rosé fuelled contract that they would one day put on a show together. Finally, it's here; The Operatic Burlesque mash-up you never knew you needed!
