Calling all Cabaret freaks, geeks and lovers of the true dark side of Cabaret with a Weimar twist. Glee this aint! Emcee with attitude (and a whip) Queen B and her children of the night will take you on a kooky, crazy and downright outrageous night – rock and roll style – from Gaga to Guns and Roses, Queen to Florence and the Machine, nothing is sacred and everything will get a spin like a disco ball in Le Grand Chapiteau. From the 50’s to yesterday if you love your music, but with a little bit of bite thrown in for good measure, then don’t miss a night at Le Grand Review.

Meet Rosie Portelou*. Love her or hate her, she has taken the world of tabloid magazines by storm. From her days in the Philippines, to her infamous marriage to mining magnate Sam Bankock*, and then of course, Billy*. Analisa Bell takes a closer look at the life of Australia’s most outrageous socialite. Gold-Digger had its origins at the 2009 Short and Sweet Cabaret Festival in Melbourne and features popular tunes such as It Had to Be You, Dance: Ten Looks: Three (‘Tits and Ass’) and original compositions like Poodle Ballet (yes, you read right!) composed by Perth’s very own Tim Cunniffe. This tongue in cheek cabaret is sure to have you in stitches!

Cabaret... the perfect vehicle for this bubbly, wide-eyed performer.

Fantastically grotesque.

Minor Major Marlene is a sumptuous and intelligent glimpse into the astonishing 65-year career of Marlene Dietrich. Accompanied by Tom O’Halloran on piano, Ali Bodycoat paints an extraordinary picture of Marlene Dietrich’s remarkable and complex character. From glamorous femme fatale on screen to formidable stage performer, Bodycoat captures the charm, wit and severity of the original queen of reinvention with her exceptional vocal ability and poignant stage presence. Striking, captivating and beautifully presented, Minor Major Marlene features exquisite costumes, stunning visuals and classic songs such as Lili Marlene, Amsterdam and Falling In Love Again.

Whoever knows Marlene and has been able to experience her has experienced perfection itself.
