The Melbourne Cabaret Festival today called for submissions to perform in its fourth annual festival.

The Festival will kick off on Wednesday 26 June 2013 with an Opening Gala at Australia's largest capacity theatre, the Palais Theatre, then cabaret will burst upon stages all across Melbourne until the Closing Gala on Sunday 7 July.  

Last year the Festival experienced multiple sold-out shows, attracting more than 8,000 audience members which was 83% up on last year and 150% up on the inaugural Festival in 2010.

To perform in one of Victoria's fastest growing and most exciting festivals, performers should submit via http://melbournecabaret.com/perform-in-2013. Submissions close at the end of February.
