New Love Is the New Black

Article by Shelley Blake | 01 May 2008

Neue Liebe (New Love) is the sparkling new brain child from four of Edinburgh's most lustrous cabaret producers. Acting as a platform for the quirky arty sexy and fun, this original and modern day cabaret is a delight for the senses. The intimate Voodoo Rooms is the perfect venue for the event, with the private bar buzzing and a general sense of excitement throughout. Neue Love involves a variety of acts from musicians to comedians, burlesque dancers and rah-rah girls. Local organic chocolate makers The Chocolate Tree are present giving drops of there divine little treats, and the inclusion of such extra elements creates an intimate sense of community throughout. By partnering more traditional forms of burlesque (from The Academy of Burlesque) alongside modern comedians, quirky musicians, and a hint of politics, the New Love presents a full bodied and sexy night out.

The next Neue Liebe is on 25 May at the Voodoo Rooms; it's an official single and video launch for Swimmer One, and features a range of other top cabaret performances: £7/£6 concessions, £5+£1 booking fee tickets available in advance (recommended).
