Synopsis
"Feathers and fans, corsets and costumes, glitter and rhinestones..."
The glitz and spectacle of burlesque is a feature-length film starring British burlesque superstar Immodesty Blaize, crowned the Queen of Burlesque 2007 in Las Vegas.
BURLESQUE UNDRESSED is a lavish and dazzling journey right into the heart of the art-form. This high-definition special tells the real story of the genre, charting its rise and fall from early British roots to an American evolution, and finally rejoicing in burlesque's 21st century revival.
Starring Immodesty Blaize with show footage from her very own Tease Show recorded May 2009 at Koko/London and co-starring Kalani Kokonuts, Perle Noir, Catherine D'Lish and Dirty Martini. The film also features a special appearance from Marc Almond and a blaizin' big band soundtrack of heart pounding, memorable music and interviews with veteran burlesque legends.
