Peggy de Lune


Peggy, tell us what’s in that suitcase?! Well it depends on the day, sometimes you'll f ind my little costume designer, Rose Noir, stashed in there, furiously sewing bits and bedazzling away. She's small so it's easy to travel with her, especially for out-of town gigs. Otherwise the usual burlesque airhostess things: oxygen mask, life vest, ripped stockings, mini-bar alcohol bottles, that sor t of thing.


You’re a newcomer on the scene, when did you decide to become a performer? I've been performing since I was little and told my mum at the age of nine "I don't want to play soccer, I just want to dance!” so even then you could see there was a drag queen desperate to get out. Then when I was at drama school in London a friend took me to see a burlesque show and I absolutely loved it. After graduating I was battling with unemployment and star ted taking classes

Peggy de Lune is a burlesque chameleon, mixing Betty Grable-inspired glamour with contemporary comedy. Her act ranges from rib tickling neo-burlesque to


classic American burlesque, and all during a Buddhist ballet-inf luenced striptease. Retro upgrades to a f irst-class ticket direct to Lunesville for a chat.


to express ideas, and I got hooked!


Who would you love to perform for? Bill Clinton, because he would totally be into it. The Dalai Lama because I would be interested to see what he thinks. I'd also like to get an audience together of the most conservative Republicans in the US, because I bet despite their best effor ts, they would actually quite enjoy it!


What can we expect to see in your performances? I think you're always going to see a lot of energy! All my acts, even my classic striptease, are high-energy acts and I tend to get a bit carried away when I get on stage. There will always be some level of goof iness and you'll probably never see me do something completely serious. Even when I'm really trying to be serious, I will end up doing something silly.
