Cabaret Time Machine
Welcome to an evening where you control the clock! Every night is a new historic era, where no two nights will be the same. Could you find yourself in Ancient Rome? Perhaps the Roaring Twenties? Maybe you’ll be in Marie Antoinette’s perilous court or swinging through the psychedelic Sixties? You choose the era and we create the magic.
Musical improviser, comedian and cabaret artist Isabella Valette (WA Tour Ready Award Winner, Green Room award nominee Best Ensemble 2023 - Cabaret Unscripted, Best Cabaret Nominee Melbourne Fringe 2023) and her talented musicians will be spinning songs, stories and theatrical gold on the spot, in the spotlight. Has to be seen to be believed!
Cabaret Time Machine: Where history meets hilarity, and you hold the remote control to time itself.
This show is interactive and has a lot of audience participation. No one will be forced to participate and it is all voluntary, but those who are willing will be asked onto the stage or spoken to in the audience.
