Burlesque against Breast Cancer: Reading & Burlesque Performance at Oct 12 London Fetish Fair

TIMES 3:30 P.M. on the left MEZZANINE Oct 12th at Shillibeers.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and there's nothing we like better than getting kinky to celebrate. What better time to celebrate as well than on a Sunday afternoon with lots of other beautiful, like minded souls!

The founder of Burlesque Against Breast Cancer, Brighton-based sex writer, Emily Dubberley:

‘Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK. It affects 44,000 women - and 300 men - per year. That means that by the end of today, over 100 women - and probably one man - will have found out that they have the disease. And earlier this year one of them, unfortunately, was my mother. She luckily survived after undergoing radiotherapy and had immense support from cancer charities including Macmillan. It only seemed fair to give them that support back.’

As well as a number of events, including a charity burlesque ball and a special midnight screening of Moulin Rouge, Emily has teamed up with the publisher, Xcite Books, to collate a special Burlesque version of the very popular range from Xcite, ‘Ultimate Burlesque‘ which will be showcased on the night.

Enter the sparkling world of burlesque as you've never seen it before. The UK's top erotic writers including Katie Fforde, Jo Rees, Nikki Magennis and Kristina Lloyd revel in the erotic glamour of fluttering eyelashes, twirling tassels and more than a hint of stocking. Sapphic encounters, fetish fun, sensual exploration, kinky submission and domination - whatever your pleasure these stories are guaranteed to provide the ultimate tease.

Some of the authors from the book will be appearing at the London Fetish Fair!

Welcome to the world's longest running adult fashion and BDSM market!

Appearing on behalf of BABC will be:
