Default Leicester Burlesque

I'm looking to start burlesque in the Leicester area for shows and performances.

I've had three years dance experience (not burlesque), I'm burlesque modelling and making my own burlesque and pin-up clothes, so confidence/performance isn't the issue, someone to do it is however... well thats another story!!

Does anyone know of any burlesque troups in Leicester or somewhere nearby? like Coalville or Ashby?

Or is anyone in Leicester with experience interested in peforming together? x

Ah! That rings a bell. It was at De Montfort, wasn't it? And didn't Millie perform at a pseudo-fetish thing in Leciester last year?

Oooooooohhhh!! I'm real excited now - I live in Rugby, so not that far from Leicester (besides which I'm there every other week anyway as I'm a Tigers fan!).
