Formerly housed in the Cambridge University Union, this event has now taken up residence in the main dining hall at the smart University Centre, just o ff Mill Lane, allowing the team to bring their quirky combination of music, comedy, poetry, film, philosophy and dance to a larger audience.
Previous events have seen the likes of local band Fred’s House performing, as well as comedy from the hilarious Gabby Best, and the line-up this month looks equally promising. Heading the bill on Friday 25 April is award-winning comedy double act Twisted Loaf, who’ll be delighting the audience with their trademark silliness and surreal sketches. They’ll be joined on the night by folk singer Polly Paulusma, comic singers the Unbearable Pleasure of Being a Woman, mime artist Daniel Cossette and magician Jamie Segrave – plus a few more surprises.
“We wanted to o ffer Cambridge people something a bit di fferent from a straight concert or play,” says event co-producer Charlotte Sankey. “Creative Cabaret appeals to people’s desire for an intimate, communal experience that’s completely unpredictable. There’s something to make you laugh, cry, reflect and dance… all in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.”
Alongside the entertainment, guests have the option of enjoying supper at their table, as well as drinks, hot and cold. Tickets cost £18 and the doors open at 7pm. Future dates for your diary are 27 June, 26 September and 28 November.
