]]> The company was started by journalist and production manager Sara Colohan in 2003. Inspired by a bygone era, Sara produces a string of sell out shows every few months to showcase the club’s unique acts including a Can Can troupe, contortionists and vintage burlesque striptease performers along with bands, singers and comedians. “I became aware of Neo Burlesque partly because of my fashion background, (working as a stylist I’m constantly looking for new styles and trends) and partly because of my waning interest in club culture. I was a club DJ for most of the 90′s and I just got bored of club culture and techno (event though I never thought that could happen) So I was on the look out for an alternative form of entertainment. I heard about Burlesque when I was in london in 03 and went to a small show called The Whoopee Club. I was captivated. Neo Burlesque has emerged from the worlds coolest clubs in a colourful, tongue in cheek haze of retro chic. I ventured into this ‘other realm’ as a voyeur and emerged hooked, enthralled and determined to bring this Burlesque party to Dublin, in all its feathered glory!! Within 3 weeks of seeing a show in london I held the first Tassel Club in Dublin. Now, in 2010 we are back in London with three sell out shows and a performers agency! Dreams certainly do come true!” Click here for Sara Colohan’s other work, Fashion/Stylist/Production here are some images of our Irish shows & audiences
