Biography
Briefs is an all male, sharp shootin’ cabaret of burlesque, with balls; a filthy-minded troupe of high-flying circus bandits and savage gender offenders. Briefs smacks 2getha a riotous evening of intoxicating physicality, unexpected stumbles, gob-smacking comedy & ridiculous showmanship.
Freshly laundered from steaming hot runs in London, Edinburgh and Dublin, Briefs slams together a beef-caked and disorderly line-up of Australia's award winning mischief-makers in a circus-infused variety show for the not-so-faint-hearted.
Host Shivannah - love-child of the ringmaster and bearded lady - leads a ragtag team of skilful buccaneers in a contortion of vaudeville, burlesque, dance and clowning. Raw and savvy, a mix political conscience, theatrical rule-breaking with heaps of clever parody and good old-fashioned entertainment.
