bed·lam {bedləm} noun “a scene of uproar and confusion”

The Rogues are back at the famous Red Rattler Theatre for a fearlessly rainbow-flavoured edition of The Bedlam Cabaret, presented as part of the Sydney Gay Lesbian Mardi Gras Festival!

Showcasing exciting new and emerging Sydney performers alongside the city's coolest established artists, this is the pre-parade shindig you know you want - we're turning up the heat, and the talent, to get us in the mood for the party.

Nine Sydney performers will take to the Rattler’s stage and almost anything goes! Featuring the incomparable Marlene Dali in a bespoke Bedlam performance; the dazzling burlesque wonder that is Kael Murray; the positively sinful Ben Noir, the remarkable talents of Mr Curly Fries, and the Daggy comedic stylings of Debbie Zuckerman.

Hosted by the one-and-only James ‘Breko’ Brechney, Bedlam Mardi Gras Edition will be a  madcap, multi-genre, queer-themed cabaret blending burlesque, drag and song with circus, comedy and seriously sizzling performance art.
