This unforgettable event culminates in a blinding, heart-stopping snowstorm that engulfs the entire audience. The lyrically beautiful, theatrical experience melds the unbridled hilarity and unexpected poignancy of clowning with awe-inspiring imagery, whimsical music and amusement park thrills

Ooh Baby Baby!
New Zealand/Aotearoa
A blend of comedy, aerial dance and acrobatic theatre, Ooh Baby Baby is an hilarious excursion based around doctors who run a fertility clinic. Problem patient encounters reveal fear of birth, womb envy, ticking biological clock and obsession with falling sperm count. A funny, sexy saga of new life.

8pm, Fri 7, Sat 8 Aug Theatre Royal, TSB Showplace

Paul Capsis
Australia

A night listening to Australia’s biggest voice, Paul Capsis, is like a religious awakening. Scaling gospel to the blues, deconstructing Lou Reed, Nick Cave and REM and channeling the spirit of tragic yet transcendent divas form past decades, Paul Capsis is one of Australia’s most acclaimed and successful cabaret and concert artists.

Sat 8, 7.30pm, Sun 9 Aug, 8.30pm, Spiegeltent Salon Perdu
