A great list of things to do in St Kilda delivered to you every Sunday evening


BLANC de BLANC @ MAP57 on the Triangle
Until Sunday 30 July
From $55 Tix and info
TWISK review: This show is 100 minutes of sexy, funny and thrilling cabaret blending stylish, exciting and amazing circus skills in a fast moving burlesque package. Breathtaking  physical theatre routines soar above the audience, contortion meets dance as romance intersects with danger.  Many laughs are earned with clever visual gags and vaudevillian charm. The spiegeltent is the perfect venue, with performers roving the audience with madcap antics and zest (don’t sit at the front if you are shy). As promised, there are a bevy of beautiful bodies and more than a splash of nudity – so prudes beware – this is an adult world and it will tempt many to soar after the show.
Listen to our PODCAST mingling
