I was recently asked, in this interview with Inside Cabaret, what cabaret is. A lot of people would probably say that cabaret is a very personal, intimate exchange of music and stories between a performer and audience.
My answer was:
Cabaret is… singy-sing, talky-talk, and (for the audience, mostly) drinky-drink. The rest is up to you…
Not the most sophisticated response admittedly, but I stand by what I bring to the table. Especially this table:
“as exceptional a writer as performer”
Crikey Curtain Call
“fascinating and extremely funny”
Glam Adelaide
“a kick-arse vocalist”
GFI Oz Comedy News
“sparkly demeanour... smart and sexy”
Edinburgh Fringe Review
“fun, fresh, laugh-out-loud”
Aussie Theatre
“strong vocals, fabulous stories”
Fringe Biscuit, Edinburgh
“a great voice, a fine mind and a clever way with words”
Lisa Thatcher
“gumption and sass”
The West Australian
“unflinching enthusiasm, impeccable timing”
COSMOS
“the lady is just so talented”
Weekend Notes
“warmth, quirky wit, terrific singing”
Stage Whispers
