Without saying our beautiful art form has some cliches, there are definitely a few things, as an audience member, you will spot at shows. So just for a bit of fun, we thought we’d create a burlesque bingo card… Let us know when you get a full house!

Things to look out for:

boob frame

shimmy

Cupping hand to ear to generate applause

Audience interaction

a wink

“ooops! My skirt just ‘accidentally’ lifted up!”

Compere: “The louder you cheer, the more they will take off!”

Fanning of self down with piece of costume, hand or prop because it’s so hot

An over enthusiastic audience member over-heckling their welcome

Vivian of holloway dresses

Cup cakes (or reference to)

Glitter

(please note – there are no booby prizes for a full-house! this is just for fun!)
