First Time Follies at Sinan Bozkurt

Last week saw a sellout show for Skinny Pete Promotions Skinny Pete website in Canterbury with his First Time Follies burlesk competition. I’ve been furiously working on the photos but have had a lot on so apologies if you’ve been waiting for these.

Now read on for a little write up of the night. As there are so many photos and so little time I just randomly selected some shots I like to give you a taste of the night.

Trixie Sparkle. Very funny act.

The very beautiful Lydia. A burlesque night distinguishes itself from a common strip night in many ways. One of those ways are the hostesses, there to help prepare the stage for the next act. Lydia did a fantastic job along with the other hostesses, beaming out smiles and hospitality all round.

Honey Schnapps. Authentic grease monkey tough girl. Great performance.

The gorgeous Tia Brodie wowed us with her fantastic voice and her curvy figure.

The slightly shy but lovely Piratica, once a hostess, now a performer. Great job on the night.

The lovely Fluffy Bunster. She had a fantastic costume that she made herself and she was lots of fun on the night.

The stunning Rosa Swan.

The wonderful Beccy. First person to get me a drink at a gig everand there to brighten up the place and help everyone. A true hostess.

Another hostess Kerri. One of my favorite shots of the night. Kerrie and I might work together in the future and she was lots of fun on the night. I took this shot in the interval.

Lilly de Lure and Fluffy Bunster.

The very fun Delilah Cherryblossom. Great girl, great act, and one fantastic dancer.

Pictured here with I think her boyfriend (with the camera) and with the sound engineer for the Timeless Beauties singing act.

Miss Kandy Sprinkles, voted the winner independently by both the audience and the judges. What was it about her show that won the night? For me it was her incredible energy during her performance.

Queenie Valentine. Great act, lots of character.

And the hostesses of the evening, burlesque and cabaret veteran Glory Pearl. Combining pole work, ariel antics, comedy and plenty of sass, First Time Follies was lucky enough to have this talented lady announcing the various acts.

I’ve heard one performer name him ‘Darling Pete’. The man behind the magic of Skinny Pete Promotions.

Two of the Judges, Serverine Sinful and Domino Burlesk, performers and promoters with tons of experience. Well qualified for the job. Domino managed to come along despite feeling poorly so well done.
