Mass Hysteria 

 


Mass Hysteria is an absolute gift from the Unholy Trinity that brought us Madam Martha’s Parisian Cabaret. It’s based loosely around the idea of “worship” but reimagined in the high fashion neo-pop advantgarde styling that is becoming associated with this creative powerhouse. Mass Hysteria was everything that’s good about a Fringe Festival. It was art that pushed boundaries, the very best kind of absurd and a genuinely unique view framing. I could not have loved it more. 

The core cast of Skank Sinatra (Jens Radda), Iva Rosebud and Meg Hickey were absolutely epic. Featuring everything from opera to burlesque the group wowed a packed house with incredible skills. The confidence and charisma radiating from the stage was palpable and the audience grabbed it with both hands and went absolutely crazy for the entire show. I was completely on for the ride, screaming my lungs out. The show was made even better by some great guest performances that added to the energy and excitement of the whole experience. 

Mass Hysteria is High Fashion, Neo-Pop, Electro Cabaret that’s equal parts Disco Inferno, Pop Culture Cult and Super Welcoming Cuddle Puddle! 

This show has shot straight to the top of the list of my list of all time favourite religious experiences!!!

If you want to see it, there is still time… but you are going to need to hurry! 

The last show is tonight!! 15th of March!! In Gluttony

You need to see this show!
