The Grand Electric

Landing just in time for Mardi Gras and fresh from sold-out seasons in Melbourne and Brisbane, is Late Night Vice – it’s very, very naughty and just a little bit nice. Brought to you by Strut & Fret, the glorious minds behind Blanc de Blanc Encore, this is cabaret with a sharper bite – you’ve been warned.  Opening on February 12 at The Grand Electric (on Cleveland Street), it’s where glamour flirts with chaos and all the rules are gleefully broken. It’s strictly for an 18+ audience (yes, they will check ID), so dress to impress in black and step into a world of decadence and dance.  Headlining the act is global burlesque icon Jake DuPree, the first non-binary performer to appear at Crazy Horse Paris. New York creature of the night Ruby McQueen will perform ultra dangerous acrobatics using aerial straps and an iron jaw (a mouth bit). Powerhouse vocals come courtesy of Emma Mylott, while musical theatre royalty Melanie Hawkins (think Wicked, King Kong, Saturday Night Fever) delivers polish with punch. Add Strut & Fret’s own chaos merchant Spencer Novich, plus genre-bending circus and burlesque star Adam Malone, and you’ve got a seriously talented line-up. No phones or cameras allowed. Expect nudity, profanity, strobe effects, pyrotechnics, feather explosions, confetti… as we’ve said before, you have been warned. Ticket prices start at $69 each.
