What does it take to make a heart breaking, burlesque machine you may ask yourself? Well take 5 naughty girls, add some cheesecake (and you know were not talking the dessert!), gingham, pasties, corsets, seamed stockings, heels, bangs, boobs and babes… shake it all about and you have Melbourne’s naughtiest burlesque troupe... Man's Ruin.
Man's Ruin formed in 2004 as a bunch of custom culture loving girlfriends and quickly cemented themselves as Australias premiere cheesecake troupe. Bringing a lil’ rock n roll & sugar n spice to the Australian burlesque scene. Allow them to introduce themselves *drum roll please* for your sensory pleasure Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome to the stage...

Man's Ruin combine elements of burlesque, striptease and cheeky, down right sexy dance routines with rock n roll, rockabilly, funk ‘n’ soul and all things with a beat, to create a show filled with cute horror, lusty parody, smokey pouts and heart breaking kisses.

Man’s Ruin have also shared the stage with some of Australias finest performers and bands such as The Cosmic Psychos, Yumi Umiumare, SixFtHick, Zombie Ghost Train, Airbourne, The Town Bikes, The Onyas, Hi Ball Burlesque and John Schooley to name just a few.
