YUMMY Bite Sized is a fabulous cabaret, burlesque show that lifts the spirits and fills your senses. A variety act of all sorts, it's like a box of chocolates. Different flavours but all delicious and filled with all the elements you'd expect from Burlesque and Cabaret. With just one more show at So Soiree on Saturday 15 October 2022 at 10pm, if you bought tickets and caught these fabulous queens, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

Part of Melbourne Fringe, the Fringe Garden of So Soiree is at Grattan Gardens on Greville Street in Prahran. Do Check out the rest of the program that runs for one more week. Get out of the house and do something different at these one hour show events; perhaps catch a few shows on the same night and support the Arts and the Artists, along with the plethora of eateries and bars you can frequent during the one hour between shows. Or simply enjoy the bar right behind the event tent. Needless to say, there is some nudity, mild coarse language and sexual references.

This multi-award-winning cabaret incorporates drag, dance, circus, burlesque, and a contortionist - Soliana, who'll make your eyes water and pop out of your head with her skills and supple body. Some of it is unimaginable and looks downright painful. It was her Melbourne premiere solo performance on the night. Valerie Hex, YUMMY Founder, Artistic Director and Performer compered the show and put in a couple of naturally naughty performances. Jandruze was simply gorgeous as you can see in this image with her edgy short blonde hair and mysterious singing tones.

Velma Vouloir delighted with her strip and tease and Richard Sullivan and Hayley Hoopla kept it light with their incredible circus skills of juggling and hula hooping. A night of variety is never boring, and the more colourful the performers are, the better. Because of its variety, this is one show I didn't want to miss, and I wasn't disappointed. An excellent way to kick back and get away from the daily grind. Raunchy but classy, this is a show of skills, entertainment and innuendos, don't miss it.
