Anya Anastasia: Cabaret Star for Hire
A musical comedy that follows a performer's quest to become a super spy.
Overview
Everyone has had the James Bond fantasy. No, not that fantasy. We're talking about imagining you're a secret agent who thwarts global plots and has a pen that doubles as a parachute (or something). It's a job we've all wished we had — but our intelligence services never seem to be advertising vacancies. Fortunately, cabaret matriarch Anya Anastasia is launching a public campaign for the position in Cabaret Star for Hire.
In her new show, Anastasia announces she is calling time on her wildly successful career as a performer, setting out her prospects for the future and cataloguing in detail the abject failures in her past. Billed as 'part performance art, part Aussie opera, part physical and musical comedy extravaganza', Anastasia's swansong takes a hammer to the façade she created on social media before stepping us through her plans to take the espionage world by storm.
Cynics might consider a public cabaret extravaganza an ill-judged medium for announcing one's entry into the spy game. But Anastasia's too damn good — this was never going to stay secret for long.
Anya Anastasia: Cabaret Star for Hire is showing on Friday, July 12 and Saturday, July 13 as part of Bondi Feast 2019. For more information and to purchase tickets, head this way.
