A Night At the Musicals

A Night At the Musicals
Fringe World. De Parel Spiegeltent, Fringe Central, Perth WA. Jan 31 - Feb 6, 2017

British cabaret performer and Olivier Award Recipient, Le Gateau Chocolat, has been a firm favourite at Fringe World for the past four years. This year he is joined by English comedian Jonny Woo, to create a fun-filled, irreverent and very glitzy tribute to Musical Theatre.

A clever pairing, the very different performers work beautifully together to create a show that pulls songs from a wide variety of musicals and delights at every turn. Extravagantly costumed, this cabaret, drag and tribute show includes some unusual audience interaction and outstanding singing.

Jonny Woo is hilarious with an edgy drag elegance. His lip-synced Les Misérables is unique and clever with his rendition of Mein Herr from Cabaret, a highlight of the show.

The divinely costumed Le Gateau Chocolat, sings beautifully, performing gorgeous bass baritone covers of music theatre classics. All are great but stay tuned for an icy surprise in the latter part of the show.

A warm, and friendly performance from a duo who appear to have a genuine affection for their audience. They improvise well, are having a ball and their enthusiasm is infectious. A top quality show that is fabulous, flamboyant fun.
