Due to some unforeseen scheduling difficulties the producers of the shows have switched the productions giving Perth audiences a chance to revisit fringe favourite La Soirée

Fringe World Festival Director Amber Hasler said that the opportunity to bring back the sensational show was too good to pass up.

“What a wonderful New Year’s present to get another serving of all the razzle dazzle in La Soirée. This show is pure Fringe fare; it’s joyous, celebratory, hilarious, cheeky, irreverent and at times quite saucy and slightly twisted,” Hasler said.

La Soirée returns – reimagined, bigger and bolder than ever! The trailblazing, multi-award-winning show that broke all the rules, captured the world’s imagination and redefined contemporary cabaret takes up residence this summer at the iconic Ice Cream Factory from January 17.

The show, which has an ever changing cast, has lined up some serious talent for their return toi Perth.

Cabaret Décadanse from Montreal return with their sassy, sexy and hilarious puppet feast for adults in which the puppeteers André-Anne Leblanc and Colin St-Cyr-Duhamel are as mesmerising as the puppets themselves.

Straight from the streets of Mumbai, be astounded by the unparalleled strength and spectacular skill of Mallakhamb India on Indian Pole with duo Rajesh Amrale and Aakash Pilwalkar.

Performing seriously dangerous tricks in front of live audiences is par for the course for Fratelli Rossi, acrobatic brothers Alejandro and Ricardo Rossi, while Lucky Hell is one of the most revered sword swallowers of our time, a combination of high glamour and unbelievable skill.

The wickedly sultry Carla Lippis will bring her her fierce brand of rock ’n’ roll swagger to the stage. There will be acrobatic mayhem in store with an incredible powerhouse trio: Bedn Lewis exhibits his dazzling display of strength in a sexy strap routine; the dynamic and daring Will Meager on the astonishing Cyr Wheel; and the powerful and fearless Will Underwood on Chinese pole.

The show will announce more of their performing line up in due course.

LA SOIRÉE is at The Ice Cream Factory, January 17-20, 22-27, 29-31. February 1-3, 5-10, 12-17, 19-24, 26-28 and March 1-3 at various times. Club Swizzle ticket holders will be honoured with La Soirée tickets.
