ELLA FONTAINE (BRISBANE) - ABF HEADLINER
MORE ABOUT ELLA:
Ella Fontaine is back to host all our events for a second year!
Ella's first foray into Burlesque, was with The RagTag Revue in 2007, as part of the "double-or-nothing" duo: The Gamble Sisters. With a focus on comedy, singing and classic themed Burlesque, Ella and her identical twin Rita went on to perform regularly with Brisbane's "first generation" of Neo-revival burlesquers; who helped to cultivate and inspire the scene in Brisbane.
Within a year, they were performing interstate, fronting their very own live band, and soon secured their places on a tour of Australia with The Burlesque Ball. Soon after, Rita Fontaine left the duo for Sydney and Ella's focus was on The Sugar Shakers and her career in Retail. But, the glittery sequins, lush feathers, and "anything-can-happen" nature of burlesque was too tempting to miss, and Ella stepped back onto the stage in her new role as MC...or in fact, she was pushed! ...........While assisting MC Rita Fontaine at the 2012 MBA Grand Final, her twin decided that Ella needed to try MCing herself, and they did "the old switcharoo"!
Ella has since clocked up a considerable amount of time as a burlesque MC, hosting numerous events for: The Australian Burlesque Festival 2018 The Bombshell Burlesque Academy Bebe Le Buff's School of Performance Big Bang Burlesque Sunday Night Burlesque (at The Press Club) Miss Burlesque QLD 2015-2017
