Fire performer, burlesque artist and professional dancer, Penny Valent is London’s typically unorthodox answer to the traditional showgirl. 

‍

Drawing inspiration from Weimar Berlin and the erotica of the American mid-century with a classic-cum-grunge aesthetic, she is the epitome of contemporary femme fatale; elegant, independent and unapologetically female.

Her fire shows feature technical eating and breathing tricks, intricate spinning choreography performed with fans, swords and staffs and crashing pyrotechnic effects and her burlesque performances are dance pieces with a cinematic touch, using classic props such as glitter pours and feathers or fetish ones such as candle wax and milk.

As a multi-disciplinary performer and choreographer she has appeared on stages all over the world, from Las Vegas to Bahrain, Ghana to the Seychelles; with notable inclusions such as 'Inferno' at the Paris, Las Vegas and 'Masters of Dirt' with The Fuel Girls, 'Amatory Asylum' and 'Menagerie' with House of Kittens, 'An Evening of Burlesque' UK tour with The Folly Mixtures and 'Nocturne' with Black Cat Cabaret at the Underbelly Festival. 

As a dancer and model she has featured in campaigns for Myla Lingerie, Boohoo, Killstar and Honour, commercials for Ford and Dreamlands and in films, music videos and TV productions such as WWE's Eliminators, Oh Wonder, Made in Chelsea and BBC3's Bollywood Carmen.
