Babushka and Alicia Jane's Cabaret: Musical Cabaret Double Bill

BRISBANE FRINGE FESTIVAL Presents Babushka and Alicia Jane's Cabaret: Musical Cabaret Double Bill The Bearded Lady Two of Brisbane’s most exciting cabaret acts join forces for an unmissable double bill at The Bearded Lady. BABUSHKA "Babushka combine stunning voices, superb vocal arrangements, spot-on comic timing and a sense of the absurd to great effect. These girls are what contemporary cabaret is all about - a real post-modern mash up!" -Alison St Ledger - Director of the Brisbane Cabaret Festival Hidden beneath scarlet lips and taffeta, four mischievous femme fatales conspire to create a theatrical musical experience that takes traditional cabaret by the horns and smacks a kiss on both fat cheeks. This Brisbane-based collective dares you to play along as they fearlessly fuse opera, jazz, cabaret and pop with vocal acrobatics, rich musical arrangements, scrumptious harmonies and compelling story telling in ‘a real post-modern mash up’ (Alison St Ledger - Women in Voice). With a repertoire that runs from Gotye to Dvorak, mashes Carmen with Kylie and everything in between, Babushka’s performances in the last three years have included appearances at the Woodford Folk Festival, Brisbane Festival, Queensland Cabaret Festival, Brisbane Cabaret Festival, The Adelaide Fringe Festival, The 2High Festival and Anywhere Theatre Festival. Babushka features the dirty and flirty talents of Alicia Cush, Bethan Ellsmore, Arlie McCormick, Judy Hainsworth and pianist David Law.

Theatrical and personal. Dark and uplifting. Alicia Jane is the bastard child of a three-way love affair between Judy Garland, Tom Waits, and Ute Lemper (we’re still unsure who the mother is). With a kick-ass band of crusty old mavericks, AJCabaret combine to form a sublime cocktail of music, narrative, theatre and art.
