Featuring the titillating talents of local and international showgirls such as the award winning CC regular Annie Laine and show-maker / show-stopper Gigi Cartier plus some very special guests yet to be announced. 

Not one to be missed, for something very special awaits you at Club Cartier: Ecdysiast.

Expect a combination of aerial feats, tassels, twirls, the bump, the grind a whole lotta... leg. A salacious and sensual experience held over just three nights at the iconic rooftop of Nineteen Ten.
