The Adelaide Cabaret Fringe Festival has announced over 40 events across 15 different venues for its 10th Anniversary programme.
The programme features the best independent homegrown and national cabaret – representing the breadth of artistic expression in Australian Cabaret with a diverse lineup of new and familiar names.
The programme is highlighted by the inclusion of Australia’s velvet-voiced Mikelangelo, with his triumphant one-man tribute to Leonard Cohen. He will be joined by special guests including Cabaret Fringe Festival Creative Director Jennifer Kingwell and local songwriters Koral and Anthony Callisto (of Cosmo Thundercat).
Martin Pascoe will be offering cabaret with an Indigenous twist. A hilarious new spin on a show that has played both the Spirit Festival and the NAIDOC Ball with performances by a host of local Aboriginal talent.
Heightening the 10th Anniversary celebrations, The Cabaret Fringe Festival will host a one-weekend-only party to open the festival at the Freemason’s Lodge from 2-3 June.
A chance to celebrate 10 years of diversity, festivities, and independent cabaret, the Opening Weekend Gala at the Freemason’s Lodge will include host, International Superstar and Sex Symbol Hans, and offering mischievous social satire, raucous circus-gypsy style songs will be Anya Anastasia, along with a full program of festivities and late-night antics.
