VIVA Melbourne welcomes a brand new midweek monthly offering, “Whoop Dee Doo!” produced by Miss Maple Rose and Myra Magdalene.

Get ready for a full evening of entertainment with "Whoop Dee Doo," a double show event that takes you on a journey from the golden age of burlesque to the cutting edge of neo performance art. 

Whether you're a regular at the club or a first-time guest, "Whoop Dee Doo" is your ticket to an evening of double the fun and double the delight. So, join us for one show or stay for both—either way, you're in for a night of unforgettable entertainment.

7PM: A BURLESQUE REVUE

Step back in time where the spirit of the golden age of mid century burlesque clubs comes alive in a dazzling display of striptease, jazz, and classic charm. 

Our sultry hostess, with her smoky voice and timeless allure, will guide you through a night of unforgettable classic burlesque, featuring a rotating lineup of Melbourne’s most captivating artists. From seductive fan dances to playful stripteases, it's an evening of pure sparkly nostalgia. Perfect for those who appreciate the art of the tease with a touch of vintage flair.

The heartbeat of "Whoop Dee Doo" is our live jazz band, whose smooth rhythms and swinging melodies set the perfect tone for the evening. With brassy horns, sultry saxophones, and a rhythm section that keeps the groove going all night long, the band provides the soundtrack to an evening of pure indulgence.

Doors open at 6pm for 7pm show.

10PM: ANOTHER LATE NIGHT REVUE

As the night deepens, "Whoop Dee Doo" transforms into something entirely different with our late show, a neo-burlesque spectacle where anything can happen. Expect the unexpected as a rotating lineup of bold and daring performers take the stage, pushing the boundaries of burlesque in thrilling and imaginative ways. This is where tradition meets innovation, and every act is a surprise.

Before the curtain rises on the late show, our live jazz band will warm up the crowd with a full set, blending modern grooves with classic swing to create an atmosphere of excitement and anticipation. So be sure to buy a ticket to both shows to catch this energetic jazz set!

This isn't just a show; it's an experience. So, grab a drink, find your seat, and get ready for a night where anything can happen. At "Whoop Dee Doo: Another Late Night Revue," we're here to surprise, delight, and leave you wanting more.

Doors open at 9:30pm for 10pm show.

    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.

    Izzard: The Tragedy of Hamlet
    To Shakespeare’s text be true is the obvious goal here, and writer, director and actor have each scored.

    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.

    Even when individual works did not fully land for me dramaturgically, there is no denying the precision, intelligence and care of the artists creating them.

    Unabashedly and unapologetically entertaining, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels delights in its hoax hokum, a whimsical hustle of musical comedy bustle.
