Your Teacher, Emmeline Spankhurts:

Many moons ago Emmeline Spankhurts sauntered onto the stage with a martini in hand and a strong case of resting b*tch face, got distracted by something shiny and forgot to leave. Her performances tease, titillate, and terrify balancing on the tightrope between the ridiculous and the delightful with a flair for the dramatic. Audiences are kept guessing if she really, really likes them or if she’s going to destroy them with the fury of 1000 suns. She can make grown men cry with the raise of an eyebrow and thick thighs to smash the patriarchy.

Emmeline has been described as:
“A delicious scoop of gelato with resting bitch face” – Serenity von Varda (Perth International Burlesque Festival Albany Roadshow 2023)
“She has the most terrifying resting bitch face, until you get to know her” – Mama la Roux (2020)
“You never know if she’s going to kiss you or eat you” – Satin Spitfire (2016)
