Devour

This isn’t a cabaret—it’s a revolution of circus, sex, and rebellion.

With a ferocious and intensely sexual energy, ‘Devour’ reimagines Red Riding Hood, with a twist. Starring Malaysian-Chinese-Kiwi Miss Hellblazer as a strip club worker-turned-werewolf, supported by the cast of New Zealand performers  David Ladderman, Rochelle Mangan, Isaac McFarlane, TJ Vidal, and MC Lizzie Tollemache.

Featuring pole dancing, tricking, aerial acrobatics, stunt fighting and a chainsaw, ‘Devour’ is an unapologetic blend of urban and pop culture, social commentary, and decadent artistry. Expect cream-slicked contortionists, acrobats dripping in gold chains, and a golden shopping trolley finale you’ll never forget.
