Club D’amour, presented by newly established local production house; Tone & Cheek, is setting the sizzle factor to extreme and delivering the most debaucherously delectable show for Fringe World 2022.

The team at Tone & Cheek say the house was built on the foundation of creating local art for local audiences, whilst providing employment opportunities to local WA artists.

Co-producer Liam Guiney (Stay Loyal to the Royals & Making Your Markle) said he is excited to contribute to the creative side of fringe once again, after taking a break and working with the Artrage team in delivering the overall Festival in 2021.

Club D’amour is set in a back alley French brothel, and follows a forbidden love story of the club’s resident courtesans – think Moulin Rouge combined with 50 Shades of Grey and a splash of Rocky Horror,” Guiney said.

“This world-class production is truly set to be one of the sexiest shows to come to FRINGE WORLD through a flirtatious fusion of dance, burlesque, circus and live music”.

Club D’amour’s star-studded cast includes some of WA’s most outstanding talents, including multi-award-winning drag superstar Fay Rocious (Drag Diva Spectacular, Divas the Drag Revue), aerial strap extraordinaire Anthony Tran (5, 5+1, 5+2), sultry striptease artist Melina Mall (Menagerie), and vocal powerhouse Amber Scates.

Joining the cast onstage is co-producer Natalie Oakes (The Underground, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Lyons Productions), who has said she “is thrilled to be working with a star studded cast of phenomenal home grown talent to create unique, high-class and ridiculously risqué work”.

Club D’amour runs from Fri 14 – Thurs 20 January. For tickets and more info head to fringeworld.com.au
