REVIEW: At Factory Theatre, Kelly Clipperton’s new solo show transforms memory lane into a catwalk
Supported by Naomi Campbell’s glamorously grounded direction, which glides over the keys of sharply contrasting emotional scales, Clipperton paints a quippy, unapologetic, nostalgically referential portrait.
Alan Cumming and Ari Shapiro promise to hold nothing back in thoughtful but naughty cabaret
“Cabaret is like a smorgasbord,” says Cumming ahead of the show's engagement at The Rose in Brampton. “You can turn on a sixpence. [It’s about] shocking you with the extremes of what might happen. I think we certainly live up to that.”
