Welcome to the magical, mystical world of Eilidh Ellery. Your Naughty Performer, Playwright and Professor. Explore this curiously beautiful cosmos of Scottish Sensuality (with a wee touch of ScotSense). Inspired by vintage B-Movie hosts and Hammer Glamour. Dirty-pretty goth, punk and dad rock. The dark side of the golden age of silver screen movie musicals. And, niche memes.

Like a tartan chameleon. They have taken on many roles over the last 3 decades. Both on and off stage. From stage kitten to tech wizzard. Dance class instructor to screen dance film producer.  Eilidh can wear any performing arts hat thrown their way with style and panache. 

First stripping their way onto Nerdlesque stages in 2015. Often billed as “and now for something entirely different…” Eilidh’s performance style has been described as… Ivor Cutler adjacent. And, Philomena Cunk “if the Pump Up the Jam bit was sexier”.
