Celebrating Our Choreographed Routines…

This year, our spirited Hull Harlots embraced an array of choreographed numbers, each infused with its own distinct flair and personality. From the sensual rhythms of 'Welcome To Burlesque', adorned with gloves and boas, to the coy and flirtatious tones of 'Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps', enhanced by the use of ostrich fans, our dancers have delved into a diverse performance repertoire. The charismatic 'That Man', and 'All That Jazz' brought the retro chic of trilby hats and fringe skirts into our array, proving that classic styles never fade. 'Shivas Regal' introduced bump skirts and gloves, adding a touch of vintage glamour, while the Burlesque Ball show routines 'SMASH' and 'I Put A Spell On You' saw our performers wielding ostrich fans and boas with renewed vigour and finesse.
