About The Hurly Burly Show
Created by burlesque artiste supreme, Miss Polly Rae,Miss Polly Rae and the Hurly Burly Girlys started life on the cabaret circuit of London’s glittering West Endand salubrious Soho - the long-time home of London’s cabaret scene. The Girlys were regular fixtures at the infamous Soho Revue Bar (formally Raymond Revue Bar). So popular was the troupe and its inimitable brand of burlesque comedy and striptease that this engagement became a residency.
In 2007, the Hurly Burly Girlys were awarded Best Troupe at the Ministry Of Burlesque Awards leading to many TV and public appearances. Following this the show reached staggering new heights with the introduction of a world class creative team brought together by Director William Baker who is most widely known for his creative work with Kylie Minogue and many others.
The Hurly Burly Show show opened at the Leicester Square Theatre and was met with more excellent acclaim. In a London first, the show played a further 8 weeks at the highly lauded Garrick Theatre in the West End and again wowed audiences and critics alike.
