About This Event

Brand Update in Progress - We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to enhance your experience.

Glitterverse Productions is extremely proud to bring Big Band Burlesque back to the Martha Cohen Theatre in the Werklund Centre.

Join us on Saturday, May 30, 2026 as we head on an adventure back to Club Obi Wan and a time when the big bands of Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Glen Miller and Cab Callaway ruled the airwaves.

Come on a sentimental journey with the Midnight Blue Jazz Society and their 17 piece big brass band as they lead us through the decades with added flavours of swing, jazz, blues, latin, funk, classic rock and their own take on modern hits.

Combine these sounds with the glitz and glamour of some of the globe's premier burlesque performers and vocalists, and you have yourself one exciting evening that is not to be missed.

Headliners:
Luna Yen (Victoria, BC)
Tre Da Marc (Minneapolis, MN)

With performances by:
Domino Rogue (Red Deer, AB)
Eda Mami (Calgary, AB)
Ivy La Fleur (Calgary, AB)
Lola Jett (Calgary, AB)
Lucky Légère (Calgary, AB)
Stemzzzz (Calgary, AB)
Tina Bo’Bina (Kelowna, BC)

Hosted by: Baron von Boom and Dare Reaire

The show will run approx. 2.5 hours, and will be presented in two sets with one intermission.
