(Channel 4’s Sex Education) present the burlesque beauties Madame Lady Cheek and Beau Peek, the vaudeville genius of Bernadette Russell not to mention, straight from the world famous Coney Island Freak Show the transvestite purveyor of pain – Chrisalys! in a Christmas show that’s most definitely not suitable for the whole family!
