The British Babes Songbook
Grab your cuppa and enjoy a brilliantly British journey through pop history. The British Babes Songbook is a sparkling cabaret celebrating the powerhouse women who’ve shaped the soundtrack of our lives from the swinging sixties to now.
Armed with wit, powerhouse vocals, and a dash of British humour, Sadie Humphrey takes audiences on a hilarious and heartfelt journey through decades of female icons. Expect soulful ballads, sassy mash-ups, and feminist reflections that hit all the right notes.
