Busting Out Back Again, 18 Mar

Busting Out, a raucously entertaining celebration of the female body, which was staged at the Lowry in September, direct from the Edinburgh
Festival, is back in the region next month.
 
Jam-packed with music, stand up, theatre and cabaret
the show is created by Emma Powell and performed by Emma and Bev
Killick
. Emma’s theatre career has included played Rosie in the
Australasian Tour of Mamma Mia and Bev is one of Australia’s most celebrated female stand-ups.

The
show has been a fêted hit in Australia and New Zealand and has now
played to over 250,000 people.The audience play a vital role in the
proceedings by appearing on a large on-stage screen and often actually
on stage. Emma and Bev’s up-front and out-there breast-based contortions
are intercut with rousing song and dance sequences, hilarious sketches,
a shadow play and brilliant stand-up comedy.

Busting Out is at the Palace Theatre on 18 March 2010.
