Hellfire Sydney
The Hellfire Club (Sydney)

They’re back! The deviant duo that captured Christchurch, tied her up and had their wicked way with her at the 2005 Fetish Ball return to NZ's shores with their slaves and DJ in tow… this time to take Wellington by storm.
Yes, the Sydney Hellfire Club's partners-in-crime, Ultra and Master Tom, are flying across the ditch with a suitcase chock full of fun... well, chock full of whips, restraints, paddles, pegs, clamps and other fiendish instruments of torture.
The Hellfire Club is Australia's original fetish nightclub, shocking audiences since 1993 with their trademark mix of deviant DJs, sexy shows and a very kinky crowd - since becoming a Sydney institution - and that cities longest-running club night.
On a very tight leash, they're bringing Sydney's queen of Underground Tribal music - DJ Mandy Rollins - to add that dirty dungeon vibe to proceedings. Mandy plays all of Sydney's biggest parties, including Inquisition, Sleaze Ball and Mardi Gras, as well as promoting her own regular night called (appropriately enough) Dirty. Mandy has been resident DJ at The Hellfire Club for more years than she'd care to remember, but is energised at the prospect of touring the Hellfire sound to our nearest and dearest neighbours.
They're also bringing their two favourite submissives, Ms. Naughty and Ms. Nice, for a competitive beat-off to see just who can take the most punishment and still be begging for more.
You can catch these four on stage at the 2008 Wellington Fetish Ball with a fast, furious and flashy display of physical fireworks that will leave audiences gasping. If you never thought pain could be pleasurable, come and be proved wrong when you see just how much these women can take... and how much they love it!
The Hellfire Club: subverting the dominant paradigm since 1993

Pollyfilla
Pollyfilla (Aust)

We're proud as punch to have Pollyfilla perform and MC for both NZ dates this year. Critics describe Pollyfilla as having the Fashion Sense of Jem, the facial expressions of Linda Blair in the Exorcist, the Comedic timing of Carol Burnett in Annie, the style and poise of Faye Dunaway in Mommie Dearest and possessing more leg than a bucket of KFC! With a career spanning almost 10 years, Pollyfilla has a great depth of experience as a performer and designer, and her career highlights illustrate this to a tee!


Sarah Sloane

She is a BDSM / Polyamory / Sexuality educator who has been presenting for organizations and events all along the eastern half of the USA and into Canada for the past eight years; she also works with individuals to learn skills and techniques to enhance their lives. She has been exploring the body / mind connection for over ten years through various SM activities and as a body modification artist and piercer, and she delights in the flamboyant and edgy.



Lady Xanthi and her pony Rivendell (NZ)
The New Zealand Fetish Ball will again host the pony fetish duo that enthralled the audience last year with a dark, mystical, and erotic performance by Pegasus (Rivendell) and the Sorceress (Lady Xanthi). Last year, the steamy storyline took an unexpected turn, startling the audience with a shift in power that left the dominant Pegasus subdued, debased, and at the whim and whip of the Sorceress.
This year you will penetrate the world of Pony Play a little further when the second part of the story unfolds with equally erotic, dramatic, and powerful consequences. Will the Unicorn (Moondusk) help Pegasus vanquish the Sorceress? Will you see things never performed on a New Zealand stage before?
Joe, the designer and director, has developed this new genre of Fantasy Fetish theatre with help from his friends. Be prepared to be surprised and seduced by this professionally produced, world-class performance.
This year, part two will be performed at the Christchurch Fetish Ball and part one will be performed at the Wellington Fetish Ball.
