Blond Ambition Events & Dance House presents:

BURLESQUE PROMENADE: THE MATING RITUAL

 

Friday 18 June | Performances 19.00 & 21.00
CAPITOL, 468 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G2 3LG
Box Office: 0141 552 2442
Tickets £7 (£6) in advance | £8 on the door
LIMITED SEATING

A genre (and gender) bending piece of theatre cabaret created by Gypsy Charms and Chris JS Wilson, The Mating Ritual burlesques men, women and our mating behaviours.  Guiding you through a boisterously bawdy man-meets-woman history is the sharp tongued devil-in-disguise Des O’Connor.  Starting with a famous royal couple and finishing with 80’s pumping sexercise, the Mating Ritual uses a sensory cacophony of dance, burlesque and musical comedy to examine how convention suggests we charm, connive and con the opposite sex into continuing the human race.
