The art of burlesque and sideshow performance is seeing a bit of a revival in the form of eclectic, intimate nights in unique venues. So you’re in luck that one of these very performances is heading to Sheff this April.
Having sold out shows from Liverpool to L.A, The Secret Circus will be bringing their celebration of the ‘weird, wild and wonderful’ to alternative venue DINA on Cambridge St. You can expect burlesque, comedy, music, magic, spoken and ‘sideshow’ style performances, but no two shows are ever the same so who knows what else they’ve in store for Sheffield.
Not long now, #Sheffield!!! Joining us at @DINAvenue on April 26th will be Raven Noir, globally renowned for her flamboyant brand of of sideshow-burlesque.

Performers for the April 26 show include burlesque from artists such as Sheffield native Raven Noir, listed as one of the top 20 burlesque acts in the UK, music from Chanel and the Circus and variety from Stan Skinny to name just a few, with more acts to be announced.
The Secret Circus encourage you to get involved in the spirit of things with circus and cabaret-themed attire (if you haven’t got a ringmaster jacket or feather head-dress just lying about we imagine a bit of sparkle will do just fine).
Tickets are as follows:
EarlyBird: £8.50
Advanced: £10.50
Standard: £12.50
On The Door: £15.00
Grab your place here, with DINA being a small venue, we imagine they’ll sell out quickly.
The circus kicks off at 8pm, ending at 11pm.
In the jungle, the mighty jungle, a naughty lion sleeps tonight…
Along with #drag, #burlesque, #comedy, #music and #circus acts, guests at our SOLD OUT #Brighton debut this Friday can expect #contortion by the incredible Twisted Nymph!@brightonargus @carolynw_circus #shh pic.twitter.com/V9JreO26rj
