After a sold-out, critically acclaimed US tour and seasons in San Francisco and Los Angeles, Empire Strips Back is currently playing in San Diego with upcoming seasons in New York, Chicago and more to be announced!
Let us deliver you to the dark side!
With comedy and allure, loving detail and hilarious parody, The Empire Strips Back drops classic Star Wars characters into the world of burlesque. Be prepared for some seriously sultry Stormtroopers, a dangerously enticing Boba Fett, some tantalizing Twi'leks, a delightfully luke-warm Taun Taun, a lady-like Skywalker, the Droids you are looking for, and much, much more!
Neil Gooding was also a finanical investor in The Empire Strips Back previous US tours having moved to the role of co-producer in 2021.
REVIEWS
"THE BEST EPISODE OF STAR WARS I'VE EVER SEEN..." - Nathan Fillion
"The Empire Strips Back has been packing out Australian theatres since 2011..... and is poised to take on the United States." - The Guardian
"..an extravagent, fantastical melange of burlesque stylings performed exquisitely by the ladies - good adult fun taking suggestive subtexts of the films & running a mile with them"
- Canberra Times
"...a most saucy caricature - the bawdy nature of burlesque makes a perfect match for the pop culture icon that is the world of Star Wars" - Music Feeds
"Nothing has blown me away nor made my face ache from smiling so much quite like The Empire Strips Back." - NOWUC
