The Cairo Club Orchestra
The Cairo Club Orchestra is an American-type dance band based in Melbourne, Australia, comprising ten swell guys dedicated to the faithful recreation of the hot sounds of the 1920’s, 30’s and 40’s. These committed loony tunes have sifted through archives, braved dusty, spider-filled garages and swapped scores with venerable eccentrics in Australia and overseas to locate the best in early jazz, blues, swing, talkie hits and novelty music.
And when they can’t physically locate the music, well some of the guys just go ahead and transcribe scores from original recordings. They all play on period instruments, and if you asked them why they do it, they’d tell you they do it because it’s fun. But if you’ve seen the orchestra in action – you wouldn’t need to ask.

Danica Lee (Sydney)
Flying in, straight back from her performance at The Amsterdam Burlesque Festival, Danica Lee is a firm favourite on the Sydney Burlesque scene.
Danica Lee is Sydney’s sparkliest addition to the burlesque scene, but don’t chalk her up as ‘just another one of those girls that takes her clothes off’. With a cheeky sense of humor and some very original acts to tease and titillate, 2009 is definitely Danica Lee’s year.
Having performed for everyone from giggling school kids to cackling grannies, there is definitely something for everyone at one of her shows.

Frankie Valentine
Dancer, performer, vintage costumer and all around femme fatale, Frankie Valentine, sets old time glamour on fire with a signature sensuality that has venues all over Melbourne smoldering. Frankie perfects the classic art of the strip tease with a personal and contemporary approach to burlesque, which has seen her become one of Australia’s hottest Burlesque acts.
Her love of vaudeville, theatre and creative costuming all lend to the extraordinary visual quality of her shows; every conceptual performance displaying her love for exquisite staging. A Frankie Valentine show can take you to a boudoir in bohemian Paris, a gin -filled tryst on a hot New Orleans night in the prohibition era, to the background sounds of dirty bayou blues.

Tank
A special guest from The National Institute of Circus Arts & CircaNICA is Tank.
Performing her signature foot juggling routine, Tank is one performer set to dazzle!
