Between the Covers
House of Hush Burlesque — Edmonton Fringe favourites — are BACK at the iconic Varscona Theatre with their steamiest, sassiest spectacle yet: Between the Covers. See what the critics are raving about as we slip between the pages and into a world of passion, parody, and page-turning seduction in this romance-novel-inspired burlesque extravaganza. From windswept bodice rippers and dangerous fantasy lovers to forbidden desire, scandalous heroines, and happily-ever-afters with a wicked twist, this dazzling production brings your favourite romance tropes to life with glittering tease, laugh-out-loud comedy, and irresistible heat.
This brand-new edition features a fresh original script performed by acclaimed playwright and actor Belinda Cornish, whose razor-sharp wit and magnetic stage presence tie the evening together in deliciously dramatic fashion. Featuring an all-star cast of burlesque royalty, including Canadian fan favourites Audra Dacity, Jezebel Sinclair, and Sharpay Diem, and award-winning international showgirls Violette Coquette and LeTabby Lexington. Directed by the brilliant Molly MacKinnon, with lush and tantalizing group choreography by Audra Dacity.
Between the Covers is a sumptuous celebration of romance, camp, glamour, and unapologetic desire. Whether you crave smouldering heroes, feisty heroines, or a little literary mischief, this is one story you’ll want to stay up all night reading. Act fast to claim your tickets, House of Hush shows sell out quickly! 18+
Between the Covers is a romance novel themed burlesque show. Think love, lust, attraction and of course JOKES! This is an adults only (18+) show that involves the playful removals of clothing with a story. You will see group numbers, solos, silliness, and sparkles.
