A first of its kind! Shimmery Burlesque is a groundbreaking Burlesque stage show that follows the life of Lady Shimmery, a dressmaker who becomes immersed in costuming for Burlesque. Throughout the entire show, captivating Burlesque numbers unfold, seamlessly weaving into the fabric of Lady Shimmery's narrative. A cast of twenty glisten with rhinestones, feathers and tassels! The show begins in Lady Shimmery's workroom, inspired by the romance of old-fashioned dressing rooms, adorned with sewing machines and mirrors. Audiences are then transported to the city of Paris, where timeless gardens, parasols, park benches, painters and French Cabaret provide the glamorous backdrop for the story of how Lady Shimmery fell in love with the art of vintage tease.

Written and Directed by Holly Mouat, Shimmery Burlesque debuted in 2022 to sold-out audiences and standing ovations. The show is based on her mother, Kerrie Schultz (Shimmery Couture) - the Head Costume Designer of the show. Cabaret singer Abbey Paige Williams takes the stage as Lady Shimmery, alongside a grand Burlesque ensemble. Shimmery is choreographed by award winning Maple Rose and Kimera Diamond, with lighting design by Jason Bovaird.
Audiences are loving Shimmery Burlesque!

It was high class show, funny and extravagant with beautiful ladies and lovely music!
The show was amazing, sexy and great for all females ⌠All shapes and sizes .. girl power .. The costumes are beautiful.. perfectâŚ.
Stunning costumes, beautiful women and a very entertaining show.
Wow just wow. We were right up against the stage, probably a little too close lol, but omg, what a show. The narrator has such a beautiful voice, both singing and speaking. The ladies, ranged in ages as did their body types, but they all had such confidence. I used to wear that sort of gear until 2 years ago, but now after seeing this show I will wear it again. Thank you ladies you looked sensational in those gorgeous costumes and lingerie. There was one performer who did Cirque du Soleil type acrobatics it was a delight to watch. The performers all had such cheeky personalities, the show went off without a hitch. What I loved most, it had a story line from start to finish, and the whole thing made sense. I think my favourite costumes were all of them, lol. If you can ever get to see this, please, do yourself a favour, and do. This is the best Burlesque show I've been to so far, this would be very hard to beat.
