Awkward Activists

Cabaret • Social Change
South Australia • World Premiere
You might know Millicent Sarre as your local Friendly Feminist, or maybe you recognise Joshie Belle as the homo who writes sassy songs to the Prime Minister. Together they are your Awkward Activists: f*cking up so you don’t have to. Join these multi-award-winning artists for an intersectional activist cabaret brimming with original songs about lending your voice to a cause, and forgiving yourself when you don’t nail it.

‘Millicent Sarre is exceptional. A singing voice that could take on many genres, stage presence, intelligence, wit and a rare song-writing gift to be celebrated.’ Theatre Travels.

‘[Joshie Belle has] a fearlessly self-deprecating wit and a musicality that is equal parts Minchin and Mozart ’ Scenestr.

Presented by: Millicent Sarre & Joshie Belle

Millicent Sarre and Josh Belperio and both multi-award winning cabaret artists and writers.
