CHEEKY CABARET @ Bruns Picture House
2022-09-15 - 2022-09-25 | NSW
CHEEKY CABARET
Spring is in the air and what better reason to bring back the hottest show in town?
When the Brunswick Picture House first opened back in Easter 2016, we opened big, with a two-hour adult cabaret that would showcase some of the best talent on offer.
And now, 6 years on, the CHEEKY CABARET has become our signature show. It has redefined a night out at the theatre, smashing together circus, vaudeville, comedy, new burlesque and everything in between.
With a brand new cast each season or run, our patrons have spread the word up and down the Coast about the Cheeky and we are thrilled that some of the most incredible international artists from around the world are beating down the door to come to perform at the Brunswick Picture House.
Sexy and dangerous, with tongue placed firmly in cheek, this is one party you will not want to miss! The Cheeky has rightfully become the talk of the town – it’s circus like you’ve never seen before. This genre-bending cabaret is cheeky, clever and damn sexy, celebrating the weird, the wonderful and the wildly entertaining, leaving audiences gasping for more!
The Cheeky features a different cast of troubadours, miscreants, delectable divas and cabaret queens every month, so no two shows are ever the same! You’ll leave spellbound, titillated and amazed. As always, bring Grandma but leave the little ones at home.
