Naughty Cabaret

Comedy • Cabaret
Norway • Australian Premiere

'Naughty Cabaret' is an award winning & queer cabaret!

Hosted by the “lovable duo” The Scotsman, Naughty, a six year old clown in crocs and her useless assistant, Nice. Played by the “queens of the ridiculous” (★★★★ The Wee Review), Anna Marie Simonsen and Marie Kallevik Straume, also starring in the “irresistibly silly” (★★★★ Guardian), comedy 'Troll'. Joined by a line-up of women, non-binary and queer performers; they will be challenging the patriarchy & male-gaze together through comedy & art. 

Expect a feminist extravaganza full of drag, circus, clowning and comedy. The line up changes every show, and every performance is different.
