Described as the love child of RuPaul’s Drag Race and an Aussie version of Cirque du Soleil, Briefs: The Second Coming, is a sharp-shooting cabaret of burlesque with balls.

Meet the beautiful and bearded ringmistress, Shivannah, and the impressive male specimens of Briefs in the trashiest and most outrageous of talent shows you’ve ever seen. Expect a jaw-dropping, eye-popping evening of highly skilled acrobats, extreme costume changes, extravagant birdbath boylesque, too close for comfort yo-yo tricks and more than one highly inappropriate banana.

Fresh from sell-out seasons in Berlin and Edinburgh, Australia’s home-grown all-male boylesque troupe has wowed and wooed audiences from Brisbane to Berlin and beyond. Get ready for a riotous evening of gob-smacking comedy and ridiculous showmanship.

Cast: Fez Fa’anana, Thomas Worrell, Louis Biggs, Dallas Dellaforce, Mark “Captain Kidd’ Winmill, Lachlan Shelley and Evil Hate Monkey.

There will be an Auslan interpreted performance on 8 January at 9.30pm.

Note: This event contains haze, strobe and nudity. Restricted to ages 16+. The Meriton Festival Village is a licensed venue. Under 18s must be accompanied by an responsible adult.
