And on Saturday night you can catch the NSW heat of Miss Burlesque Australia at The Factory Theatre, 105 Victoria Rd, Marrickville

Miss Burlesque International was the first competition in Australia to combine all feature elements of Burlesque performance and personality to compete for a major prize and international title.The competition is open to Burlesque performers of any level, both brand new, emerging and seasoned professional.

In each country, Miss Burlesque applicants will go through a strict application process, and each state will hold it’s own State Heats with 10 chosen Finalists. These Finalists will compete for the State Title, and continue on to the National Grand Finals. In 2011, all National Grand Finalists will be flown to the nominated location and compete for the title of Miss Burlesque International.
Each State, National and International title will be awarded to the best overall performer across a range of activities including Traditional, Neo and Unique interpretation of Burlesque.

We are also looking for a winner who will actively use her Title to promote a better community of Burlesque in Australia, and promote the community of Burlesque in Australia, internationally.

Personality, performance, skill and presentation all form key parts of winning the competition.
