If you have been to see The Folly Mixtures Perform this year, you may have noticed a few new gorgeous faces in the troupe. Did you know there are now actually 14 fabulous Folly Mixtures?! With lots of requests for shows, we have searched high and low to expand our Burlesque family and found performers with talent, personality and individuality. We thought it would be nice for you to get to know them all a bit more, next in line is our beautiful English Rose….Sally Oh Spitfire!
How would you describe your performance style on stage?
Cheeky, Charming and Classic.
What is your favourite Folly act to perform and why?
Goddess! The song is all about Venus the Goddess of love, beauty, sex, fertility, prosperity and desire… What’s not to love?!
How did you first get into Burlesque and what do you love about it?
As a recent Musical Theatre graduate I refused to work in a part time job that I hadn’t trained for. Burlesque seemed like an amazing new skill to add to my bow and I love how liberating it is!
What is the most glamorous part of being a Burlesque artiste and what is the least?
The most glamorous part is the overall look and feel, the costumes, glitter, hair, make-up and being surrounded by beautiful women!
The least I’m afraid to say is sitting backstage with your legs wide open trying desperately not to get rhinestone imprints near your crotch before you go on…(Too much?)
Now you are part of a Burlesque bag of pick n mix, which sweet are you most like and why?
Strawberry liquorice … because red is my favourite colour, strawberries are the classic British pud with a little indulgent cream and the whip… well…
Tell us a fun fact about you that a Folly fan wouldn't know….
Other than a Burlesque artiste I work as a Musical Theatre performer and a life model!
More Folly facts on the way soon! xxx
