Cabaret on a Sinking Ship

Synopsis:
Cabaret on a Sinking Ship uses a rousing blend of politics, satire, song, sex and laughter to capture the spirit of the naughty noughties, much in the same way cabaret artists of the 1930s responded to their broken society. Part cabaret, part musical theatre, part straight theatre, Cabaret on a Sinking Ship entertainingly explores the darkness behind the cabaret glitter.
