Bringing London's Burlesque Babe Here!

Ladies and Gents we have a fabulous treat in store for you

Grab your diary and be sure to book Friday 29th November into your social calendar! Why? Because we have a very sexy, scintillating and glamourous treat just for you.

With the seductive art of burlesque becoming ever more popular outside of London we thought we would introduce our wonderful friend and enticing burlesque beauty Elsie Diamond to the sparkly lights of our wonderful South Coast City!

Elsie didn't need much persuading and is shinning her heels, packing her nipple tassels and fluffing up her feather boas as we speak. All in preparation for our naughty night of fun "A Bit of Burlesque"

A Bit of Burlesque will take place at the Grosvenor Casino, Gunwharf Quays in their opulent Lady G show bar.  (8pm - Late)

Tickets are £10 each and can be bought by calling Manic Stage Productions (01983 716519) or The Casino Hotline (023 9273 2277) 

The evening is set to be a fun filled night featuring a variety of hand picked cheeky acts and artists. 

Headlining the show is of course London's glamourous Miss Elsie Diamond with her eclectic repertoire of sultry musical based burlesque routines she is guaranteed to wow you with this creative old school art.

Our host for the evening will be Portsmouth's very own Cassidy Connors who has stepped straight off the West End stage! Dressed to impress, Cassidy will add the laughter to this entertaining evening with her risque comedy and audience participation!

Adding to the naughty nature of this one off night will be Amba and The SHOW Girlz. 

Amba Tremain is a sensational solo singer who has worked with top artists including Eva Cassidy and Boy George. We can't wait to hear her renditions of seductive classics including Fever, Welcome to Burlesque and All That Jazz.

A Manic Stage Productions event would not be the same with out an appearance from our entertainment team The SHOW Girlz. Don't worry we will not disappoint and can confirm that the girlz are already in rehearsals and will of course be adding some of their show stopping dance routines to the nights proceedings.

Lastly Southsea's most desirable pop up shop Furie Belle will be selling her gorgeous jewellery and Sugar Hill clothing range on the evening so be sure to have a little look and start the christmas shopping early. 

The evening will end with everyone welcomed on to the dance floor to party the night away with the casino's resident DJ, oh and don't forget to have a little flutter on the many casino tables and slot machines out on the main floor.

If we have tickled and tempted you to join us on this one off night of Burlesque, then be quick as tickets are already selling fast and at just £10 for a great variety of acts we know that they will fly!

We can't wait to see you on Friday 29th November.

If you have any questions or queries please do not hesitate to ask

Clowning Around

Roll Up Roll Up 

Did you come down to Lakeside North Harbour to the Cirque Du Central Square event last Wednesday evening?! 

The SHOW Girlz entertained the thousands of office workers at 1000 Lakeside during the grand opening of Lakeside North Harbour Central Square. 

To open the event our gorgeous girlz clowned around performing to a medley of fun circus themed songs by Britney and Christina. They danced, jumped and twirled to open the event with colourful costumes and creative choreography

The evening was presented by our very own Ring Master Jamie who compered the unfolding events. 

As the night drew in our very own fire performer Megan wowed the crowds with breath taking fire eating! 

The whole Manic team amazed the crowds with their circus acts and our stilt walker Natalie delighting the passers by as she stood high up above the crowds!

WATCH THE CLOWNS IN ACTION HERE

The Circus themed event was to celebrate the opening of the new shopping area at 1000 Lakeside and along with our dazzling performers there were some fantastic free runners and many of the shops had demonstrations, competitions and fun for all the family. 

What a great, fun event for the retailers to showcase themselves and for the crowds to be fully entertained by an evening of circus themed entertainment!

Manic Learn New Tricks

Pole class was tough but our girlz mastered it

Last week The SHOW Girlz took off their dancing shoes to try out Pole Dancing at Tiger Tone Studios in Havant.

Manic's  team of professional dancers would not be defeated by the seemingly easy tricks demonstrated with such ease by Tiger Tones Owner Natalie Sabiston Cripps. They were determined to master the moves and after a lot of determination they certainly cracked it!

Our Show Girlz may look like dainty wall flowers but they certainly proved their strength in the pole studio!

The girls mastered some amazing moves as you can see by the great photographs!

They did what our SHOW Girlz do best, they made it look like they have been doing it for years and by the end of the class the routine was looking fabulous!

Watch our youtube video here!

The girls also had a quick lesson in hoop while at the studio and again see how wonderful our girls look not only dancing, but also hanging upside down!

Everyone had a great time and lots of laughs were had! Even Manic's co owners Nicole & Matt had ago....... Remember they are little older than the rest of us!

We want to thank Tiger Tone Studios for such a great class! All involved really enjoyed the taster session and agree its a great way to keep fit and tone muscles. 

Don't worry the girls will be back to their normal dancing classes this week getting ready for our next SHOW Girlz performance!

Back to School!

We certainly gathered a crowd

We had loads to shout about this weekend!

The Show Girlz were out and about this weekend performing as cheer leaders for Fontwell Park Race Course. 

Our fun filled and happy cheer squad surprised audiences in Chichester and Portsmouth town centres with high energy, leg kicking and splitting, exciting cheerleading 
performances. Children and adults crowded round to see the team and I think we caused quite a stir!

Throughout both days they created a buzz to help advertise Fontwell Parks Figure of 8 Family Race Day on Sunday the 8th September.  

Peppa Pig & George will be making appearances at regular intervals throughout this great family day and there is plenty of other activities for children of every age including; funfair rides, bouncy castles, face painting and Love The Races kids roadshow!!
