The burlesque revue will head to O2 Apollo Manchester on April 14, 2020, and promises to take audiences on a stunning visual journey with one show-stopping performance after another.
The uber-glamorous variety show will present extravagant new production numbers from Dita and the cast, with costumes created by famed corset maker Mister Pearl, British designer Jenny Packham, French couturier Alexis Mabille, burlesque icon Catherine D’Lish, Brooke Brothers and more. And shoe aficionados will delight in the extraordinary bespoke footwear by Christian Louboutin.

Dita said:
“With the success of my last tour of Europe, I came home more inspired than ever and got straight into building new acts.
“I am coming back with an even bigger show than I’ve ever toured with before. Being in these historic theatres with audiences coming dressed to the nines, creates this incredible atmosphere unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.
“For me, burlesque has always been about finding my own power and confidence, embracing sensuality and encouraging others to do the same in their own lives. Glamour is the art of creating mystery and allure, and the new Glamonatrix show embraces all of these qualities.”

She added:
“I feel so fortunate that burlesque has come to symbolise a celebration of beauty and sensuality in many forms, a place where unlikely icons take the stage and inspire others.
“I’m proud to be a part of the modern burlesque movement and I’m grateful to have the chance to tour with performers that change people’s minds about striptease.”
