DOUBLE D, THE DOLLY PARTON CABARET Set for Melbourne Fringe Festival
After winning the Julie Michael Cabaret Competition at WAAPA, Double D, The Dolly Parton Cabaret will have it's Melbourne debut in the Melbourne Fringe Festival at The Butterfly Club.
Double D features the very best of Dolly Parton in this comedic tribute to the queen of country music. Alongside Diablo, her sassy cowboy sidekick, Dolly will have you in fits as she shares her rags to riches story, complete with excessive costumes and all the great songs that helped her on her way.
The production comes from recent WAAPA graduates Eloise Cassidy (Parton) and Max Bimbi (Diablo). The Double D duo put their own hilarious spin on Dolly's incredible career, providing a brand new insight into this Backwoods Barbie's Coat of Many Colors, dishing the dirt on Jolene and detailing the dullness of a 9 to 5 life. No wig will be left un-styled, no bra unfilled, and no song unsung.
So tumble out of bed and stumble to the Butterfly Club this Fringe season, where diehard Dolly fans and newcomers alike are set to discover that behind all that hair and makeup is a woman with a heart to match her cup size
Double D is the perfect start to a night on the town. It opens on the 30th of September and tickets are limited. Bookings at thebutterflyclub.com .
