Event information
The Antic Follies present a spectacular Sunday night of cabaret, burlesque, comedy and live music at Jamboree!
“…the dirty alternative to Soho’s glitz, a diabolical night of cabaret and burlesque"
Tonight's performers are:
Michael Brunström! A surrealist comedian based in London, a member of Weirdos Comedy Collective and winner of the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality. Michael's 2024 show, Copernicus Now, was also nominated for the Best Show Award at the Leicester Comedy Festival. "Bucking the mainstream trend for everyday anecdotes in favour of unabashed absurdity." – Chortle
Dusty Limits! Also known as Dorian Black, Dusty is a singer, comic, actor, writer, director, and one of the most celebrated figures on the 'new cabaret' scene. They perform everything from Cole Porter to Portishead, Tom Lehrer to Tom Waits, along with their own compelling original songs written with long-time collaborator Michael Roulston, which explore themes of mortality, addiction and the futility of love. Usually for laughs. Based in London, they have performed at cabarets and clubs around the world, in New York, Berlin and Dublin, all over the UK and Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
"One of the foremost practitioners of the art of cabaret... If only the show was twice as long... Do. Not. Miss. This." – ★★★★ The Scotsman on Post-Mortem
"The compere without compare." - The Stage
"Dusty Limits is fantastic, like a dark, louche angel." - Martyn Jacques (Tiger Lillies)
Lachlan Werner! Comedy's poof prince of puppets. The "funniest new ventriloquist on the block" (Telegraph), clown and live artist, he was runner up for LGBTQ+ New Comedian Of The Year '22 and a nominee for Chortle Variety Act Award, BBC New Comedy Award, ISH Best Newcomer Edinburgh Comedy Award, Off-West End Cabaret Award, VAULT Comedy Breakthrough Award.
Lachlan's debut solo show 'Voices Of Evil' has been a total sell out hit at Soho Theatre (2022/23), Edinburgh Fringe 2023, VAULT Festival, Brighton Fringe and London Clown Festival. It was also winner of ReviewsHub Best Show Award, and nominated for a Soho Playhouse New York Award. Lachlan can frequently be seen yelling at himself with a small squishy witch.
"Hilarious. Extraordinary. A healthy dose of the unhinged" - ★★★★ The Guardian
"Unimaginable hellish power" - ★★★★ Chortle
"Giddily funny, devilishly clever... One hell of a debut" - ★★★★ The Telegraph
Arthur Hyam! An exceptional Juggler and international circus artist, awarded the title of British Young Juggler of the Year (BYJOTY 2014). For the past few years Arthur has dedicated his time to spreading Circus as an art form and wowing on-lookers in the process.
All hosted, as usual, by the inimitable Tom Baker, and the show will end with live music from The Bohemianauts, playing "Gypsy" vaudeville, bastard cabaret, and songs of unrequited dread...
Jamboree food option: Our ‘Zer’ kitchen is open from 5pm serving delicious Middle Eastern fusion food for you to enjoy a pre-gig meal/snack if you wish!
