Queensland Cabaret Festival 2015

Overview

After belting out more than a few tunes in its maiden outing last year, the state's annual celebration of cabaret is back for more music-fuelled fun. Brightening up the Brisbane Powerhouse and a selection of other venues for ten wintry days, it's the only event filled with heart-warming storytelling and fabulous songs.

In fact, the 2015 Queensland Cabaret Festival is absolutely overflowing with crooning and comic tales, making deciding what to see a hard task. An '80s and '90s double is probably the easiest choice you can make, the former seeing Michael Griffiths revel in the pop of his teenage years, and the latter guilty pleasures coming courtesy of I Will Survive star Tom Sharah.

Elsewhere, audiences can witness rock icon Tex Perkins' take on cabaret, find out the confessions of a Cyndi Lauper stalker, get swept up in the sounds of Cool Britannia and hear the warbling of a celebrity bikini waxer. Yes, this is a festival filled with diversity. Here, as the song says, anything goes.
