Lads On Tour: Cabaret -Celebrates 10 years

Lads On Tour Cabaret celebrates its 10th birthday with a run of shows at Darkroom in March 2025!
Each show is hosted by Feather Unsure and features a different line up of local and out-of-town talent as we revisit some our fave acts, performers and moments from the last 10 years!

Lads on Tour first took to the stage in March 2015. What was originally meant to be a one off informal variety show of weird and wonderful acts quickly became an ongoing series of shows.

With MC and producer Feather Unsure at the helm, she’s joined by a different motley menagerie of performers in every show. Add in a cult following of audience members, some sweat, tears, and healthy discharge, something to do with an avocado, a few cans of warm Dobro, a hot glue gun, and a decade of injokes – and you’ve got the recipe for one of Aotearoa’s longest-running variety shows. Come celebrate 10 years of lads on tour, cos life’s a fucking cabaret.
