Meet The Follys…..Lola La Pearl!

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, so we kick off with the blonde bombshell…..Lola La Pearl!




How would you describe your performance style onstage?
''Unsupervised child at a Birthday party!''

What is your favourite Folly act to perform and why?
Diner, especially when I perform it with Riri - mostly because of the silliness! Also, the costume is super cute!

How did you first get into Burlesque, and what do you love about it?
I got into Burlesque when I started with The Folly Mixtures, before that I trained as a dancer. I realised I was into Burlesque on a dancing job in China, when all I wanted to do was take my clothes off and be ridiculous!

What is the most glamorous part of being a Burlesque artiste and what is the least?
The most glamorous is the costumes, the least is what we have to do to stay in them!

Now you are part of a Burlesque bag of pick'n'mix, which sweet are you most like and why?
A sour cherry - because I look sweet and innocent but am also a stripper!

Tell us a fun fact about you that a Folly fan wouldn't know…
I am a crazy bunny lady. I treat by bunny, 'Little Bunny Foofoo', like he's my child.


Watch this space to meet another Folly soon!
