EDINBURGH 2014: Natalie O'Donoghue's Musical and Cabaret Picks!
My absolute must see performance of Edinburgh Fringe 2014 is the collaboration between vocal impressionist Christina Bianco and cabaret star Velma Celli. Promising to deliver your favourite diva hits as you've never heard them before this is one that is surely not to be missed!
The Velma Celli Show
After their run as a duo, Ian Stroughair performs a limited few dates as Velma Celli. A huge hit at London's Hippodrome casino I am thrilled that this show is running in Edinburgh.
I'm a huge fan of the soundtrack and I am excited to finally see the Addams Family performed in the UK. Staged by the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, this is the story of when Wednesday Addams falls in love with someone "normal" and how her oddball family take the news. I can't wait!
This is a musical that appeals to me for obvious reasons. One of the things that I love about the festival is getting to see so much new writing, especially musicals. I have a feeling that during the mental beast that is Edinburgh Fringe I'll be spending this performance nodding my head in agreement.
Margaret Thatcher: Queen of Soho
I'm sold on the title alone. This is an hour long drag cabaret- performed as Margaret Thatcher. Mixing politics and 80's disco the tagline promises "funny, glamorous and horrifying".
