Adelaide Fringe 2018
Michael Wheatley - No Rest for the Wicked
Fringe veteran, genre crossing, quintuple threat Michael Wheatley is showing
no signs of slowing down. If there's no rest for the wicked then, Sydney
sing and fling maestro, Michael Wheatley is like the Devil with chronic
insomnia and a collection of vintage keyboards blocking the door to the
bedroom. No Rest for the Wicked is Michael in his natural environment,
behind a grand piano, with a bourbon, a microphone, the Dirty Carpet Disco
Band and a bevvy of his burlesque besties including the effervescent Miss
Kelly Ann Doll joining him as he shares his insights on lust, love and
writing songs for strippers. Funky beats, burlesque, live music, dad jokes.
"A voice that's downright f*ckable" Dan Murphy, Brag Magazine.
"Wheatley's stage presence was grand" ★★★★ Brandon Taylor, Australia Times.
