Velvet

September 6, 2017 @ 8:00 pm - September 17, 2017 @ 7:30 pm NZST

Welcome to Wonderland … Boogie Wonderland!

After dazzling audiences around the globe, VELVET arrives in Christchurch in 2017.

Continuing to defy expectations with an electrifying journey to a world of glamour and abandon, VELVET is a raucous and seductive fusion of disco, dance, and circus. It redefines cabaret.

It’s a party, a showcase fuelled by an exhilarating disco soundtrack that never lets up from the opening moments.

Directed by Craig Ilott, this spectacular homage to the disco age has it all, the glamour, the innocence, the hedonism; all surrounded by dazzling acrobatics, disco divas and seductive chanteuses.

Created in Australia but with an international ensemble, each performance invites the audience to slip behind the red velvet rope to visit an intoxicating glitterball world where the performers and audience alike walk the fine line between the romantic and the audacious.
VELVET is a fantastic sensory overload – funky, fresh, fun and sexy.
