About Burlesque the Musical

In a world hidden beneath city lights, everything sparkles in seduction, and lives can change in an instant. Ali is on a quest to find her mother, and along the way, finds herself in an underground world that is filled with sultry music and mesmerising dance. Although it may be struggling, it is a place where she can finally discover her true self, and find her place amongst a group of diverse characters.

Welcome to Wonderland

The 2010 musical film Burlesque, directed by Steve Antin, tells the story of small-town girl Ali (played by Christina Aguilera) who stumbles upon a struggling burlesque club in Los Angeles, which is run by Tess (played by Cher). Led by two of the greatest voices of all time, Burlesque proved to be a great commercial success, earning more than $90 million at the box office. The film's standout soundtrack is passionate and inspiring, backed by thunderous vocals of its leading ladies. Christina Aguilera’s vocals shine in tracks like ‘Something’s Got a Hold on Me’ and ‘Express’, while Cher introduces us to the world of burlesque with ‘Welcome to Burlesque.’

Why It’s Worth The Watch

  • It is created by the iconic Christina Aguilera who will serve as the Executive Producer of Burlesque, Christina said: ‘Recreating Burlesque as a live theater experience is something I always hoped would happen, and here we are!”’
