Aurora Galore

Aurora Galore, winner of the Innovation Award at last year’s Burlesque Hall Of Fame

Last week, industry website 21st Century Burlesque revealed the results of its latest annual poll sponsored by Sublime Boudoir and announced the top 50 burlesque performers in the world as voted for by their peers and members of the public.

While the final results reflect the site’s largely American readership, extra lists have been produced which reflect how the international community fared in their own country. As identified by the site, here are the top twenty  performers from or based in the UK.
