This Fringe Festival, Sparkle Society’s circus show, Cab Suave will return to Adelaide at The Ukiyo, Gluttony.
From Feb 17th – Mar 5th, this sparkly show is on a mission to up the ante on representation of LGBTQIA+ performers, with this fun, narrative production suitable for ages 12+.
The cast didn’t want families to miss out on the glamour of the fringe, so they’ve added weekend matinees to their season along with a family ticket price.
With an all-queer cast (except for the token straight white man), this show has all the vintage aesthetics without any of the pesky vintage values.
Follow the story of private investigator, Dick Johnson, as he attempts to dig up dirt on the less-than-reputable Cabaret Suave and shut down the show for good. Will Dick prevail or will the performers of Cabaret Suave live to dazzle another day?
You don’t need an arts degree to enjoy this show, just be ready to be thrilled by acrobatics, extravagant costumes and live music as Cab Suave captures the visual atmosphere of classic film noir with some extra sequins added for good measure.
“We are on a mission to show that queer content is not just for adults or members of the LGBT community, it’s vital representation that anyone can enjoy,” said Sparkle Society’s Latonya Wigginton and Abby Kelso, regarding the show’s creative process.
This modern twist on a classic genre is packed full of circus, a script full of zingers and a whole lot of sparkles!
Sparkle Society was founded by two long time collaborators, Latonya Wigginton and Abby Kelso, with the aim to make a performing arts company that focuses on transparency with artists, representation for queer artists and making live performance accessible to a wide audience.
If you’re looking for a fun, inclusive night out this Adelaide Fringe, with all the glam of a cabaret, and
all the excitement of a circus show – Cab Suave is for you.
