What does it mean to be labelled a monster? What does it mean to live in a world which shames, excludes and vilifies you? And what if the monster is not who you’ve always thought it to be?

​

A new music-theatre show rethinking revenge, justice, destiny and the never before told story of the female monsters of The Odyssey, blending humour and darkness, myth and modernity and raising questions on stereotyping and bias.

​

The untold story of the female monsters of The Odyssey.

​

    “For us Femme Fatale is less of an archetype, more of a mission statement”

​

Welcome to the Monstrous Cabaret Club, a place to drown more than your sorrows, where the acts are unreal and the voices to die for! Whether you’re strapping in for the Sirens or caught between Scylla and Charybdis, you’re in for a night you’ll never survive forget!

​

Once the pre-eminent killers of the mythical age, who even Gods would turn to for their dirty work, they’ve long given up their licence to kill. Now they run a private club hidden somewhere between Mount Olympus and the Underworld.

​

They used to kill, but now they cabaret:

​

• SIREN, the woman-bird with the notorious voice

• SCYLLA the rock star with her outrageous costumes

• And last but not least the shapeshifting CHARYBDIS aka “Whirlpool”, the hostess of the grotesque, your MC with no clemency.

• ​

But the glamorous routine of their cabaret life is about to be shattered. A desperate and determined woman comes to them for help in taking down her abusive husband before he returns from a ten year war. These fabulous creatures are now faced with a deadly dilemma: sacrifice the safety of the shadows or come out into the light and help a stranger in her hour of need?

​

As the stakes ratchet up, we move from cabaret to tragedy.
