Paul Capsis, Rhonda Burchmore and More Set for the Glory Box, July 10-Aug 11

Finucane & Smith's Glory Box is proving itself to be the Venus Fly Trap of Variety, attracting artistes of exotic and extraordinary plumage, alighting for just a night or three to add to a Glory Box already bursting with seductive spectacle, live art exotica and jaw dropping cabaret.

From rock god of cabaret PAUL CAPSIS "in possession of a voice that sounds like an act of God" (The Scotsman) who'll set a blow torch to torch songs and unleash angels and demons down the intimate Glory Box catwalk; to legs-to-the-ceiling and talent-to-the-stars Rhonda Burchmore in full length peacock feathers getting Rhonda-risque with Don't Lick My Toes and Making Love On Your Own; the eternally wild at heart DEBORAH CONWAY performing from her smash hit brand new album Stories of Ghosts; PAMELA RABE returning as the goddess dominatrix leather intoning ancient Sumerian erotica Who Will Plough My Vulva; VIKA & LINDA BULL adding their heavenly harmonies to the mix and MAUDE DAVEY shaking her wild tail feathers again.

These birds of paradise are special guests in Glory Box; netted by Queen Provocateur and rapacious collector of the unique and extraordinary Moira FINUCANE as she flew in from her triumphs in London, Paris and Brighton, where she dropped the jaws of the entire seaside, studied dark angels in Parisian museums and had critics scrabbling for superlatives and stars - "reminds us of the inadequacy of simple applause"- The Latest UK.

You already knew you were in Paradise when we announced London's infamous red hanky stripper URSULA MARTINEZ, much awarded circus wild child JESS LOVE, Tokyo Terawatt YUMI UMIUMARE, Parisian dance siren HOLLY DURANT; backroom ballerina LILY PASKAS and bombshell songbird SARAH WARD.

Watch the feathers fly as world's most addictive divas unleash their latest exotic and inimitable Franken-routines in the atmosphEric Warehouse of fortyfivedownstairs. From vicious swans to visceral rock, demented disco to the darkly gothic, Shinjuku striptease to German expressionist fan dancing... take the plunge into PARADISE....

Selling out the night it opened, The Burlesque Hour has played for over 110,000 fans around the world, has won eight theatre awards, including 6 Green Room Awards and Scotland on Sunday's "Hottest Temptation of the Festival", has been acclaimed in ten languages, had 50 sell-out seasons, including three under the sails of the Sydney Opera House. It has played from Croatia to Tokyo, London to Lubjliana, Italy to Edinburgh, Budapest to Taranaki, ever evolving and ever surprising, attracting a pantheon of guest stars.

In 2012 Finucane & Smith evolved again and The Glory Box .... Burlesque Hour meets Pandora's Box! opened its velvet lid. Once opened it has never been shut. In 2013 Glory Box continues to mega-mix the subversive and seductive and will headline festivals in London, Buenos Aires, Tokyo and Hong Kong.
