before Strictly Ballroom
before Neighbors
before the big stages
there were clubs in South Africa
and New York rooms where cabaret became survival
Natalie Gamsu brings A Voice Like Shrapnel to
Adelaide Cabaret Festival
a work of exile
fear
humour
and rebuilding yourself through performance
“cabaret is having a point of view
and shaping something”
#NatalieGamsu #AdelaideCabaretFestival #Cabaret #BrinkProductions
she thought she might have been a flamenco dancer
in another life
so she made a show to find out
Natalie Gamsu brings A Voice Like Shrapnel to Adelaide Cabaret Festival
a life traced through apartheid-era Africa
through exile, stage lights, and survival
stories of tsuris: pain, absurdity, memory
told with a voice that doesn’t soften the edges
laughing
then not
then somewhere in between
from Club 88 in New York
to London, Berlin, Sydney
to one woman, one stage
next week on Arts Garden

SHRAPNEL @ The Hayes Theatre Oct 3-6. That is four days away!!!!!!!! Book NOW! I will tell you about a time in Oudtshoorn……a place where they ride ostriches……..yeah…….

Welcome to SHRAPNEL. At The Hayes. Oct 3-6. That is very very soon!!! Tickets available at .au. Such a great team- Director: Stephen Nicolazzo. Co-Creator & Dramaturg: Ash Flanders. Musician: Max Lambert. The commitment to passion and spirit and skill, to dance, to make music, and permission to be in your sex ... to push right to the edge of yourself. That’s what flamenco looks like to me, the ugliness and the fieriness of it. We don’t have that in my culture.
For our honeymoon Julian took me to the Blue Mountains. We’d gotten married because otherwise I couldn’t live here – which I really didn’t want to do. And somebody said to me, “Oh, the Blue Mountains are just like the Drakensberg.” Yeah…………
