That's NOT Amore

Cabaret • Comedy
Australia • Adelaide Fringe Premiere

A feminist cabaret comedy for your heart and soul with a pinch of guilt on top. The only way Italian’s know how.

An exploration of growing up, Italian in Australia. This cabaret speaks to the complicated layers of life, generational trauma, ones worth, expectations and the value of women…

Along with the sentimental dramatic Italian heritage stories, a loud upbringing and the 'characters' that come with a big Italian family...Explore the traditions, dialects and value systems that have been frozen in time by the immigrants that ventured here from across the seas.

Mamma Mia!!!

With a soundtrack that will warm your heart and tickle your tastebuds. Carla will inspire, delight and above all wrap you up with AMORE!
