Wed August 2, 2017 at 6:15 pm - 7:15 pm
|Recurring Event (See all)
An event every day that begins at 6:15 pm, repeating until Sun August 27, 2017
★★★★★ (Time Out, Sydney). Nominated Best Cabaret: Fringe World Festival, Best Writing: Green Room Awards. Equal parts historical and hysterical, lose yourself among sailors, barmaids and bootleggers in this darkly comic cabaret. A raucous journey through the history of gin, that is ‘not only vocally sublime but a stroke of comedy genius’ (TheatrePress.com.au).
With true tales from 18th-century London, a few New York speakeasies, the Australian bush and the jungles of Peru, Mother’s Ruin features songs by Amy Winehouse, Nina Simone, Martha Wainwright and more. Ticket includes a Four Pillars Gin and Tonic.
