THE CABARET and variety troupe, The Scarlet Vixens, finally returned after some time away from their residency at the Purple Turtle.

Loretta Lebonke hosted, bringing her dynamic, effervescent style of comedy to the role of compère.

Hot on her high-heels were Mojo Jones and Layla Cherry, with burlesque performances full of suspense and surprises.

Miss Sugar Rush was next, with a classic style of burlesque performance, followed by Oliver Ty Tassel’s enchanting, pulse-racing take on drag and burlesque fusion.

Demonica Latex finally closed the show with due spectacle.

Overall, the group showed that they’re among the best, with fun, flirty performances that push boundaries and pull focus.
