Big Band Burlesque

Glitterverse Productions is extremely proud to bring the tenth edition of Big Band Burlesque to the Martha Cohen Theatre in Arts Commons.

Join us on Saturday, May 31, 2025 as we head on an adventure back to Club Obi Wan and a time when the big bands of Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Glen Miller and Cab Callaway ruled the airwaves.

Come on a sentimental journey with the Midnight Blue Jazz Society and their 17 piece big brass band as they lead us through the decades with added flavours of swing, jazz, blues, latin, funk, classic rock and their own take on modern hits.

Combine these sounds with the glitz and glamour of some of the globe's premier burlesque performers and vocalists, and you have yourself one exciting evening that is not to be missed.

Chack Bare Again (Calgary, AB)
