This one-night-only concert is jam packed with iconic Cabaret songs and pieces - you’ll be in the company of Auricle and special guests with songs from Edith Piaf, Marlene Dietrich, Britten, Kurt Weill, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, music from the hit shows Chicago and Cabaret, and the fiery Latin music of Piazzolla.
Our composer-in-residence Steve Forman has also specially composed two songs after the poetry of Motherwell born poet, Liz Lochhead.
Let our professional cast take you on a journey from dingy 1900’s Berlin Cabaret to glitzy Broadway via Paris, London and Buenos Aires: this is cabaret like you’ve never heard it before and is a must see!
