Cabaret Time

Why not take time in November for yourself, enjoy some decadent selfishness and treat yourself to some opulent Cabaret evenings?

Before December sees us fighting in shops with shopping-bag laden women, November has some treats in store for variety veterans and virgins. Up first, the ever-popular Art Club Cabaret. Promoted by Rhymes with Purple, fresh from their successful Cabaret Festival, the lavish surroundings of Glasgow Art Club offer from Rufus T, Lucille Burn, Gorman, Miss Dolly Tartan and The Not So Impressive Ben. Dress to impress and enjoy the elegant surroundings.

The 27th is double booked. The Supper Club is an eclectic musical Cabaret at the Tron.  Says Peter Screen, "Upstage Theatre Supper Cabaret is trying to capture those times of the 70's and 80's where Chicken in a basket was the norm, featuring members of Upstage Theatre Productions and  very talented staff from the Tron theatre.  They perform classics from the all  genres, from 60's/70's pop to westend and broadway shows. To top it all, a good only fashioned supper in a box is included in the price"

It faces off against Rockaburley, with its first themed night, bringing an evening hosted by the “Bad Girls of Burlesque”. Burley Babe Cat Aclysmic explains: “we'll have heartbreakers, villainesses, and femme fatales, not to mention girls with a simple talent for mischief, and we want everyone to dress up as their favourite anti-hero – from The Vamp to Vampira; Mata Hari to Salome, and even Katie Price. We want everyone to put on their worst face and join us for a foray to the dark side.” With the year flying by, let’s all do as Cat clamours: “Have a blow out before the tinsel takes over”.

  • If only time and miles permitted. We shall be at The Old Fruit Market a week after this venue, but if conditions had been favourable we would have made it to both venues, hopefully next year perhaps. Hope you do 'Good Girls Gone Bad' again. We had a Bonnie Parker & Clyde Barrow lined up, but if you are at High Tease/Vegas, come and say Hello. Who are we? This might help, scroll down to Golden Oldies.
