THEATRE DE LA JEUNE LUNE, 105 NORTH FIRST STREET, MINNEAPOLIS |
Delve into the bizarre, disturbing underworld
of London's favorite cabaret subverts, The Tiger Lillies. The trio--"criminal
castrati" singer Martyn Jacques, double bassist Adrian Stout, and the
"James Joyce" of drums, Adrian Huge--croon savage and ironically passionate
songs about prostitutes, drug addicts, and losers. The riotously ribald
music is a startling mixture of opera, gypsy ballads, and Parisian pomp
that underscores corrosive lyrics and Jacques' astonishing falsetto voice.
Presented in an informal cabaret format with cash bar. Copresented with
Theatre de la Jeune Lune. The Tiger Lillies are the featured band for
the Shockheaded Peter
performances.
