Fancy Piece is the unholy union of

Holly Bennett and Simone Craswell,

and they’re coming for your soul.

​

Stripping it off and whipping it out since 2006, they’ve left a trail of stained sequins and shed inhibitions that comes direct from the glamorous guts of

Sydney’s queer wonderground.

​

Carving a darkly sparkling scar in the scene  with “mind-blowingly irreverent stage shenanighans” (Time Out Sydney), they’ve earned their notoriety everywhere from Gurlesque, The Sydney Hellfire Club, Unicorns, Bar Wotever, and Club Kooky, to the Australian Burlesque Festival, the Enmore Theatre and the Australian Museum. Their subversive and shattering spectaculars have been summoned to Mardi Gras’ Sleaze Ball, OzKinkfest, the Congress on Undress and the

New Zealand Fetish Ball.  

​

Creators and hosts of beloved queer club haven The Pussycat Club, Fancy Piece also revelled in a long-running residency at iconic drag king hothouse Queer Central.

 

Accomplished MCs, they have hosted film festivals, fetish frenzies, and fine fetes

with skilful adaptation to each audience, and they delight in creating

custom performances to raise every roof.

“My favourite act of the night went to Fancy Piece, who in my opinion is the definition of Sydney Burlesque. This queer, gender bending duo never disappoints …deliciously sacrilegious… made me blush. Blush and scream." 

 

- Alyssa Kitt, 21st Century Burlesque Magazine
