The Velvet Stardust Rock Show is a one-of-a-kind, immersive, live rock band theatrical experience. Dancers get down and dirty in a burlesque battle with the Velvet Stardust band in a rock and roll crash smash of energy and magnitude.

Electrifying choreography meets classic cabaret styling with routines incorporating contemporary, hip-hop, tap, jazz, ballet, Spanish dance, breaking and more. These highly reputed, trained dancers who have shared stages with mega celebs, seamlessly melt into a menagerie of flow arts with hoops, silks, glow props and fire, in this sparkling, sizzling, smoke show.

Power-house female lead vocals are backed by a magnetic makeup of musicians born of the NJ/NYC live rock scene. Dramatic drums and bad-ass bass comprise the rhythm section, killer keys and horns elevate the enigmatic sound led by electric guitar.

The show features a wide range of rocked-out covers of both bangers and ballads from artists like ACDC, Joan Jett, Heart, Black Sabbath, Aerosmith, Lita Ford, The Misfits, David Bowie and an eclectic array of surprises like Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Spice Girls, Wynona Carr, Elvis, Skid Row and The Rocky Horror Show.
