Arlene Caffrey is a pint-sized bundle of sparks originally from Co. Louth, and is now a Kilkenny resident. She is most famous for being an OG pole dance legend; she became the first ‘Miss Pole Dance Ireland’ in 2007, and is also Miss Burlesque Ireland 2016/17.
She has also worked extensively over the years in helping to promote and develop pole dancing into the art form that it is today in Ireland, by appearing on more radio, TV and media appearances than she can count.
She is best known for her ‘Irish Unicorn’ winning comedy act at Pole Theatre USA 2018 and her ‘Bad Bosco’ winning Neo act at Miss Burlesque Ireland 2016 in which she hilariously ruins fond memories from Irish childhood.
Her signature style combines gravity defying antics with more body waves, high kicks and leg twirls than you can shake a stick at, with a dash of comedy, sexistential dread and (sometimes) depressing hipster music. You’ll be seeing splits for days…
‘The smile of the Emerald Isle’, Kat started her Burlesque journey in 2012 on the Dublin scene, winning ‘Best Newcomer’ in the Dublin Burlesque Festival. In 2014 the prestigious first ever ‘Miss Burlesque Ireland’ title followed.
In 2017 Kat won the ‘Best Troupe’ award as one half of ‘Double Standards’, a Dance and Burlesque Duo in the Dublin Burlesque Festival. Over the Years, Kat has traveled all over Ireland and abroad to perform in a variety of shows and festivals.
She has been involved in producing themed Burlesque and Cabaret shows such as ‘Kat’s Annual Vintage Tea party’, ‘Stars and Strips’ and most recently a long running underground Speakeasy show ‘The Botanical Boudoir’(but we can’t talk about that!)
Kat is known for her signature performance style of marrying comedy with classic Burlesque vibes.

With over a decade long successful career performing around the world, modelling, hosting and producing headline Burlesque shows such as ‘The Honey Drops Deadliest Dames’ at the Limerick Fringe, Santina Spitfire lives her life by the unbiased ageless, shapeless, timelessness and most importantly inclusiveness of the Irish Burlesque scene.
As well as this, she identifies as being a BIG saucy vegan and crazy cat lady!
