Inspired by a tale as old as time, MATADOR is a fiery fusion of burlesque, dance and jaw-dropping circus acts.
Set across a fiery Spanish sunset, this story of a love-torn bull and the seductive Matador is a tale of forbidden love, carnal desires, passion and pain!
“MATADOR takes you on an emotionally charged journey through love and it’s many faces,” Bass Fam, creator of the production said.
“From the first moments you lay your eyes on that someone special, the butterflies, the flirting and sometimes, the doubt.
“A journey of self-discovery, identity and sexuality, of lust, sex and passion.”
Mr Fam said that the show explores the trials and tribulations of love, from the pain of unrequited love to the effects of infidelity in a relationship.
“MATADOR is a celebration of love, friendship and the bonds that hold us together,” he said.
Comprised of a colourful cast of 14 incredible performers, including Kelly Bourne as the Matador, this production features non-stop entertainment from start to finish.
The highlights include high-energy dance pieces, beautiful, touching contemporary and ballet acts, as well as steamy Latin numbers intertwined with saucy burlesque acts, pole dancing and hair raising aerial and circus acts.
