The Butterfly Club makes international debut!

DateTuesday, March 9, 2010 at 10:52PM

 

Melbourne’s premier cabaret venue The Butterfly Club makes international debut as it features on a YouTube clip shot by Mitchell Moffit, who shot to fame as a runner-up in the “Best Job in the World” competition for an opportunity to be a caretaker for an island on the Great Barrier Reef.  Despite missing out on the dream job, Moffit, a 21-year old university student from Canada, was approached by Tourism Victoria to promote Melbourne by shooting a video.  He created a little musical number that had me chuckling more than once and even unwittingly singing along.  It comes with a ‘strong cheese factor’ warning on The Butterfly Club’s facebook page, but I’m a sucker for quality cheese and it’s good fun nonetheless!

Nikki Aitken Presents...Reviews from the web

DateMonday, March 8, 2010 at 9:03AM

 

Via Fringe Benefits

Nikki’s onstage persona is the definition of the word diva and her fabulous vocals are the definition of brilliance. After having previously presented narrative based cabaret shows, Nikki, along with the wonderful musical direction from Matthew Carey has put together a fantastic theme driven show with the theme being ‘Alive and Kicking’.

Read the rest of the review by Alicia Norton here.

 

Via Adelaide Now

Her lyrics and monologues are witty, cheeky and provocative with a healthy dose of self send-up and she sings in a good cabaret style. Accompanied by Mathew Carey at the piano she soon had a full house completely on side.

Read the rest of the review by John McBeath here.

 

Via Kryztoff Fringe Raw 

On at the premier jazz/cabaret venue in town, The Promethean, Nikki Aitken Presents a themed variety style cabaret show. Selecting a few favourites from Sondheim, Brookes and Brown, Aitken’s vocals are lovely and light, truly entertaining. Matthew Carey, who has worked with the likes of Liza Minnelli, is fantastic as musical director, pianist and banter buddy for Aitken.

Read the rest of the review by Rubina here.
