Following a sensationally successful debut season in 2013, Vamp & Burn returns to Wonderland Spiegeltent with another hit of untamed, improvised burlesque set to decadent, sensual blues.

This year, we bring a French twist to the event, with Lola The Vamp providing lead vocals as well as the firebrand headlining burlesque that has been scandalising audiences for the past decade. Joining her are a veritable who’s who of Australian burlesque, carefully selected to perfectly match the European vibe of this very special Vamp & Burn. La Vie!

Starring Lola the Vamp, Baby Blue Bergman (NSW) and Evie Red (Melb)!
