Sweat? Our currency. Sass? Your salvation.
Strut into Sweaty Girlz, Boorloo’s hot new oink-a-licious fast-fashion retailer! Here, clothing isn’t just style, it’s your chance to werk it without breaking the piggy bank. Sweat? It’s our currency. Sass? It’s your salvation.
Our store? It’s a safe space for self-expression, where basic becomes boujee and fashion is a fierce celebration of Y-O-U. Join our piggy family. OINK OINK!
​
Zendra Giraudo, Marli Jupiter and Jo Cooper star in this sweat-soaked dance theatre spectacle. See mannequins come to life and spill their tea. Showgirls shimmy, twirl and walk the fine line of the trend tightrope. But slay with caution, this glimpse behind the curtain has more in store than these three little piggies bargained for.

(Show begins in bar then travels to KAOS room and involves audience participation.)

"Sweaty Girlz brilliantly hits the mark to reveal a world where we can realise our own internal paradoxes and how we can grapple with them in a deeply profit driven sense of pride." Magazine 6000​​
