The Space is Dead! Long Live the Space!

December 8th, 2009 by Roland Smith

As you may be aware, theatredelicatessen will be evicted from our glorious space at 295 Regent Street in a matter of days.

Therefore we have invited a few friends and some of our favourite performers to create a spectacular night of comedy, music, cabaret and song so that we can give our first home the send off it truly deserves....

The TheatreDelicatessen Christmas Hamper

18 December 2009, 7:30pm

The crown prince and princess of London cabaret, Frisky and Mannish bring their are the succulent delicacy topping The theatredelicatessen Christmas Hamper, bringing to and end theatredelicatessen's two year long residency at 295 Regent Street.

F and M web

Felicity Fitz-Frisky, a fabulous chanteuse, and Hansel Amadeus Mannish, an incredible maestro, are the creators and purveyors of their own peculiar brand of "twisted pop cabaret." You want to know what's actually going on beneath the vacuous pop propaganda of Lily Allen, Chesney Hawkes, Girls Aloud, George Michael, Kate Nash and the Pussycat Dolls, among others?

Come willing to learn, and you will leave with plenty.

Alongside Ms Frisky and Master Mannish will be the original cabaret whore herself, Sarah-Louise Young, enticing the loving crowd into the worlds of Sammy Mavis Jr and La Poule Plombee, whilst The Open Mouths bring their sadistic tops, sauna suicides and sex change regrets and Quattro Formaggio sprinkle on the cheese.....
