Excess. Pure, unadulterated, wonderful excess.
That’s the overall feeling Absolutely! Cabaret leaves the audience with, after a wild, fun ride of a show featuring the very best of cabaret acts.
From the moment MC Lizzie Tollemache steps on stage, her beautiful, melodious voice sets the scene as she gets the audience yelling ‘allelujah’, and pushes the crowd energy level higher and higher, ready for a night of pure (or maybe less pure, a little bit naughty) entertainment.
She’s not just any old MC of course, Lizzie is an incredibly talented stunt woman herself and during the show she not only whips the audience into a frenzy on several occasions, but also walks over broken glass, escapes from a strait jacket while upside down and suspended from the ceiling, and puts her body dangerously close to a very loud, very clearly dangerous whip - holding flowers as they, not her, are sliced in half. It’s edge of your seat stuff, especially when she gets an audience member to strap her into the strait jacket rather than an actually qualified professional.
Her audience interactions are always fantastic - she is a flawless performer, who reacts and adapts to the audience seamlessly throughout.
