Happy 6th Anniversary - Hull Honeys

Revisiting Hull Honeys' Glittering 6-Year Burlesque Legacy…

Welcome to the dazzling world of Hull Honeys, where burlesque meets beauty and talent shines bright. As we celebrate the 6th anniversary of this fabulous class, it's time to reflect on the journey, the memories made, and the magic created by these incredible performers. Led by the one and only Paris Chantilly, the Hull Honeys have become a sisterhood of empowerment, and a source of endless joy and laughter.

Join me as we revisit the glittering legacy of the Hull Honeys and their extraordinary 6-year burlesque journey.

Evolving Performances And Routines…

Throughout their six-year journey, the Hull Honeys have continually evolved, presenting an eclectic mix of burlesque styles that reflect their growth as performers. With Paris Chantilly at the helm, these ladies have ventured into the realms of Neo Burlesque, Feather Fan Dance, Classic Burlesque, Bellyesque, and ShowGirl Burlesque, each term offering a new narrative and aesthetic to master. Their performances, rich in diversity, showcase not just the traditional glamour associated with burlesque but also its contemporary interpretations. This evolution in their routines speaks to the group’s commitment to pushing creative boundaries and exploring various facets of the burlesque art form. From the coordinated sophistication of "Come Together" with its shirts and ties, to the festive allure of "It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas" with ostrich fans, each term introduces fresh elements and challenges. These thematic shifts not only keep their shows vibrant and engaging but also allow each Hull Honey to shine in new lights, embracing and showcasing their individual strengths. The result is a dynamic, ever-changing repertoire that captivates audiences and underscores the Hull Honeys' journey from eager novices to seasoned performers with a rich tapestry of routines to their name.
