Performer and manager Tootsie Rocques said: “We’ve been there for about seven or eight years now, with monthly performances, and pre-covid we were performing across the country.

“But the gig at the Purple Turtle is our flagship show, and it’s just amazing to be back.

“We change the line-up each time, it really injects variety into the show, and gives people a different experience every time– this month, we’re leading with the burlesque.”

The show will take place from 7pm on Saturday, June 25, at the Purple Turtle, Gun Street.

The Scarlet Vixens will be returning to the cellar bar on the last Saturday of the month.

 

Tickets start from £8, available from: www.thescarletvixens.com
