Cabaret Live! Melbourne Edition hosted by Nikki Aitken June 1st @ The Butterfly Club 

 

Melbourne Cabaret Live! - the first Wednesday of every month at The Butterfly Club

A Song - a story - a spotlight

 

Hosted by the fabulous diva Nikki Aitken, the monthly open-mic soiree Cabaret Live! Melbourne Edition was launched at Melbourne’s iconic cabaret venue, The Butterfly Club last month and enjoyed a fantastic turnout. 

Talented local performers including Emma Claire Ford, Justin Clausen, Simon Taylor, Sophie Walsh-Harrington and Gillian Cosgriff took to the stage, and some taking the plunge for the first time with the host Nikki Aitken singing a few tunes herself, delighting the audience in the cozy cabaret theatre. Read the wrap-up of the Cabaret Live! Melbourne Edition here.

And it’s back again for June!

Cabaret Live! is an opportunity for emerging and established artists to perform to a discerning cabaret audience in a sophisticated and intimate setting.

Whether you want to realise a life-long ambition to perform or you are looking for a friendly audience to test out new material, Cabaret Live! welcomes all performers. 

Every month, one of Melbourne’s leading pianists will be in residence to accompany the singers.

Cabaret Live was founded at La Boheme, Adelaide in 2009 and has since been playing to sell out audiences– here’s what they had to say.

Cabaret Live! has to be one of the best value nights out in Adelaide” — Barry Lenny, GLAM Adelaide.

Join Nikki and celebrate the Melbourne debut of this fantastic monthly event, where singers come to share and audiences come to enjoy!
