The Empire Fights Back!

Relive the spirit of the 1940s when Bacall asked Bogart if he knew how to whistle, when a Brief Encounter had nothing to do with underwear, and when the stage of the Belfast Empire kept more than the home fires burning.

Penguin People present a tribute to the indomitable war time spirit that kept Belfast’s opulent Empire Music Hall open during the dark days of the blitz. The cabaret-style atmosphere will transport you back in time, while the stars of the silver screen flash before your eyes, with archive news-reels, movie trailers and classic wartime adverts. Our luscious usherettes will ensure your comfort and give you the opportunity to buy your very own burlesque accoutrements.

As the darkness of the night falls, barrage balloons and air-raid sirens will signal the start of the show, the spotlights will illuminate a galaxy of stars, and musicians, magicians, and a plethora of performers will entertain you with a mixture of the romantic, the poignant, the cheeky and the downright hilarious. Like that first beer that’s ice-cold in Alex, the Belfast Blitz Burlesque show will be well worth the wait.
