After Hours Cabaret Club

Highway Robbery

When the solid citizens of Adelaide are safely in bed, the unconstrained spirits of Fringe emerge over its fairgrounds—anarchic, subversive, creative, entirely inclusive and very entertaining. Leading performers host their own late-night drop-by variety shows. It’s like finding yourself at the Magician’s convention. It’s also the most efficient way to experience a potpourri of previews from other shows on offer.

After Hours Cabaret Club is produced by Melbourne’s Burlesque powerhouse, Ms. Bettie Bombshell. Among her many other accolades, she once won the 'Most Classic' award at the Oregon Burlesque Festival. Ms Bombshell has taken her Australian cabaret variety show to Edinburgh and back. The show is hosted by Tash York and backed by a five-piece band. Ms Bombshell promises the best of Fringe from across burlesque, cabaret, sideshow and circus. The After Hours Cabaret Club is always unpredictable; the script is but a guide.
