MADhurst Presents Dawn Gracie Cabaret & Burleseque Extravaganza | Thursday 17th August | TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE
17 August 2023 to 8:00 pm – 10:30 pm
£16.00We welcome back the amazingly talented Dawn Gracie for her fabulous, thrilling Burleseque cabaret show.
Dawn Gracie is the ring mistress of mayhem and creator of Show Girl! The travelling version of Chichester Cabaret Club, which is once again visiting Midhurst during the MADhurst festival. A well renowned hostess, singer and comic, Dawn brings out her naughty side out to tease, cajole and generally tickle the crowd before, between and after the cabaret artistes that she’s hand picked for the show. No two shows are ever the same but what can be guaranteed are belly laughs, impressive moves, and plenty of sass! (Dawn Gracie Photograph – Carleen Photography)
Lena Lenman is a tour de force in the burlesque world with her shape shifting abilities, becoming different characters, and having you roar with laughter one minute and purr with adoration the next. Returning to MADhurst with another eye-popping burlesque performance – she is also one half of Sisters Dare – Lena is guaranteed to make you blush into your beer.

Chi Chi Revolver hails from the sawdust of the circus and now shines in the bright lights of burlesque! She is a cabaret artiste, burlesque star and hula hooping goddess. Also, one half of Sisters Dare, Chi Chi will be bringing gravity defying hoop skills with a naughty twist to Dawn Gracie’s Show Girl Show during the MADhurst festival.
QUIVERS is the Isle of Wight’s best kept regret. QUIVERS is a stand-up comedian, songstress, host, DJ, and a general buffoon, who is here to risk all remaining dignity to make you laugh and bring you some joy. Quivers also holds the Drag Idol UK 2022 semi-finalist accolade and they’ve had rave reviews including “Awesome, witty, naughty” & “The dog’s b***ocks” – Baga Chipz.
The Sisters Dare! World Record holding circus star Chi Chi Revolver and multi-faceted burlesque artist Lena Lenman join forces to create ‘The Sisters Dare’! Hold on to your hats as showgirls meet Houdini in this spicy, retro double act! Real magic gets a sexy overhaul as The Sisters Dare mesmerise with their dazzling, 80s inspired performance! Strap in, We’e heading to the Dangerzone! (The Sisters Dare Photograph – Andy Clift Photography)
Known for her feel-good dancing and tongue-in-cheek humour, Oola’s performances are always rooted in storytelling with a twinkle in the eye. A joyful clown, she delights in creating memorable characters, and lives for the buzz of enveloping the audience into her mischief. A warm and generous performer, she’ll have you wetting your knickers in lust or laughter – often both!
With a background in acting and science communication, Oola is now a passionate devotee of the art and science of bump’n’grind! She takes great joy and inspiration from the badass ancestors of burlesque, and honours their contributions by continually developing her own art and encouraging and supporting others on their journey.
