Venue reveal! My show's at Capitol Theatre Singapore

Sukki Singapora headline Singapore F1 Boudoir Noire



I am super excited to finally reveal that this week I returned to Singapore to announce... I'm going to be Headlining the Boudoir Noire Presents The Box official events for this year's Singapore Airlines Formula 1 Grand Prix!!! Speaking at the press conference at Capitol Theatre today was emotional to say the least...! After legalising Burlesque in Singapore just this year, performing at The Burlesque Hall of Fame earlier this month, and it being the year of SG50 (Singapore's 50th birthday) I am overwhelmed, honoured and excited! I simply cannot wait to share with you the next weeks of this crazy journey, and for every person who, like me, dared to take that first bold step, nothing is beyond the passion and strength of your love of Art.. x x x #daretodream

Thank you to Channel News Asia, @straits_times , Singapore Tatler, @yahoonews , @timeoutsg , @esquiresg , @buro247singapore , Spring, and all the other press & media who attended our press conference! Special thanks to Paul Gabie of Proof & Company, Champagne @taittingerusa , Beluga Vodka and @evianwater for joining us too!

Burlesque legend Barbara Yung has given my tribute act her blessing!


A moment I shall never forget - speaking to 96 year old living Asian burlesque legend Barbara Yung, telling her how much she inspired me, and letting her know about my tribute act which I performed at this year's burlesque hall of fame. I wasn't sure how she was going to react, and if she'd have said "do your own thing" I'd have stopped in an instant!, but instead - and overwhelmingly - she thanked me for remembering her, and not letting her performances be forgotten, and I'm so emotional to be able to say that..... she has given my act her blessing. 

So here I am, at Hubba Hubba's Monday night revue in San Francisco, the home where you burned so brightly (and still do!) on the stages in the 1940s, performing for the first time my tribute to you, Barbara Yung, with your blessing. With an intro featuring one of your favourite pieces, Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, followed by my own bump and grind, and named "The China Darling Showgirl" after your China Darlings of 1950” Revue at Fong’s Club Shanghai in San Francisco. You will never, ever, be forgotten. Thank you x x x 

(Special thanks to Korene, Dale and Helen who allowed me to meet my maker)

I'm about to speak to the Barbara Yung


My life is about to change forever.. I am about to speak to my inspiration, my idol, my role model. One of the reigning queens of San Francisco's Chinese nightclub scene in the 1940s, the now **96 year old** Asian burlesque legend, and one of the first Asian burlesque performers in the world, who gave hope to women of colour such as myself wanting to forge a career in burlesque.. the one and only: Barbara Yung... I can't breathe.

Meeting my maker in San Francisco..


In San Francisco Chinatown with two people I greatly admire, Dale and Korene, because a very special phone call is about to take place between us and someone who has changed my life forever..

Best show of my life at BHOF


So.. I DID IT!!! I performed at the Burlesque Hall of Fame, and quite literally the best show of my career (and... breathe!!!) It's been such a journey to get to this point, and so many ups and downs along the way, but being chosen to perform at #BHOF ( http://www.burlesquehall.com ) was an honour and a dream I was determined to live up to, to proudly represent Singapore, and to proudly pay homage to legend Barbara Yung, and my god I wasn't going to let either down!! Thank you so much to everyone who wished me well and sent me such wonderful positive vibes, to my American and Asian #sisterhood (and brothers ;) ), to you, my dear friends, to Jonny Porkpie, Blanche DeBris, Joyce Tang, Jim Sweeney, Kalani Kokonuts and Jo Weldon AND to everyone in the audience you know who you are!! I feel blessed (and relieved!) and now, at 6am, I'm going to get some well-deserved SLEEP! Thank you Las Vegas, and goodnight! - Sukki Singapora x x

Sold out! Our Asian Burlesque Spectacular Show!!


My Asian Burlesque Spectacular performance, shot by Zen Tygrezz :) I  am still on cloud 9 from such a wonderful showcase of #asianburlesque talent... We couldn't have asked for more, and I am so proud of each and every one of our performers - this is what it's all about - and here's to Asian women - all women! - having the right to express themselves and be and feel sexy if they darn well wish!! #daretodream #BringOnBHOF @burlesquehall

Why do I co-produce the Asian Burlesque Festival?


Why do I co-produce the Asian Burlesque Festival?

So this Saturday 30th in New York was the 3rd year of our #AsianBurlesqueSpectacular, an event which celebrates and remembers Asian burlesque legends and present performers. Not only is it important to me because it's a realisation of my campaign to fight for our right to express ourselves as Asian women, but it's also important because it remembers and celebrates forgotten #SouthAsian burlesque trailblazers like the #Indianburlesque performer Wah Wah Taysee (Taysie). Our shows truly celebrate all Asian performers from all over the globe representing a strong unity of unsung Asian heroines! So if you want to be part of #woc burlesque history, come support us next year!
