La Clique extend to 19 April at Hippodrome
The burlesque cabaret show, La Clique , has been extended 11 weeks to 19 April 2009 at the Hippodrome.
The show opened at London's Hippodrome 10 Oct 2008, following previews from 2 Oct.
A melange of cabaret, new burlesque, circus sideshow and contemporary variety, La Clique is a "sexy, funny and dangerous experience".
La Clique is impossible to define. The press statement says, "On any evening you might see Norway's Captain Frodo whose eye-watering flexibility brings new meaning to the word contortion; Spain and the UK's Ursula Martinez whose show-stopping routines literally strip cabaret down to its barest essentials; Germany's David O'Mer, who has re-invented the pleasures of a nice soak in the tub; Kiev's Yulia Pikhtina, widely considered to be one of the finest exponents of the ancient art of hula hooping; The English Gents performing their inconceivable feats of human strength and skill; Larger than life, London's own Miss Behave - a larger than life, PVC-clad cartoon character with a fetish for swallowing pointy objects; the amazing puppets of Montreal's Cabaret Decadanse's who will instantly captivate, charm and blow your mind; and last, but not least, Mario, Queen of the Circus, a veteran of the New York alternative comedy scene, an uber-cool leather-bursting reincarnation of Freddie Mercury - if he'd ever run away and joined the circus."
