Event information
Dillie Keane, best known as the founder member of the international satirical group, Fascinating Aïda, is delighted to bring her solo show to The Bigg for the first time. A selection of new and old songs, including a brand new song specially written for her by Phoebe and Isobel Waller-Bridge.
By turns hilarious and heartbreaking, Dillie’s songs reflect life as she sees it. And if the feedback she receives is anything to go by, as many others see it too – she is often accused of hiding in people’s kitchens, picking up details of their private lives and turning them into lyrics.
And as always, the wonderful, inimitable, peerless Michael Roulston at the piano providing so much more than just accompaniment.
Michael was recently at The BIGG Theatre in the sold out performance of ‘Looking For Me Friend: The Music Of Victoria Wood’.
Nominated for 3 New York Drama Desk Awards including Best Lyrics and Best Cabaret Show.
