Bebe and Luna are debuting at the 2015 Edinburgh Festival Fringe with their brand new cabaret-goes-wrong…
Bebe van der Belt and Miss Luna Peach are a spectacularly mismatched duo disagreeing on many things–from the right way to make a cup of tea, to whether gin or vodka makes the better martini–but they do agree on one thing: their Edinburgh debut must be a singularly fabulous affair that no one will ever forget. However, nothing goes to plan, and everything spirals into chaos and calamity. The show takes on a life of its own, and the result is an unforgettable evening (though perhaps not exactly the elegant one the girls dreamed of).
’Bebe+Luna Present’ was conceived after two actor/singer/musicians, Amy Burke & Geri Allen, had a cheeky dalliance in the world of burlesque. Seduced by the shameless juxtaposing of glamour with comedy, and the reckless spirit of ’YES YOU CAN!’, these two women emerged forever changed. They took their favourite elements of burlesque and threw them in a blender with a traditional cabaret, and something exciting emerged: The Cabaret Farce. Part jazz cabaret, part play-goes-wrong, The Cabaret Farce toes the line between the glamorous and the ridiculous.**
**Despite the burlesque roots, there are no nipples (tassled or otherwise) in this show.
It is our pleasure to welcome all interested members of the press from our first preview on 5 August 2015, and of course throughout the run.
