Elevan O'Clock #37 - Raven

Raven has been one of Australia's leading boylesque performers for the last decade,  even winning Mr Boylesque Australia in 2012. He has been at the forefront of boylesque growing from a handful of Australian performers to Australian boylesque troupes touring the world.  His knowledge of the history of burlesque is the roots of his performance and believes it is important to know where you've come from to know where you're going.

Tinder Tales Take Two.

After a sell-out season at the 2018 Melbourne Comedy Festival,  Tinder Tales is back for a second season.  And it is coming back with my songs, more characters, more dancing and most importantly MORE FUN. So have a listen and get some tickets and support a new Australian work. The season is at Chapel off Chapel in Prahan and you can book tickets here https://chapeloffchapel.com.au/show/tinder-tales/

Elevan O'Clock #34 Creatrix Tiara - Queer Lady Magician

Creatrix Tiara is a Queer Lady Magician and is launching their own first full length magic show at the Melbourne Fringe Festival 2018.  I'm personally a sucker for a magic show as I still want to believe in magic. Maybe you will too after having a listen to our chat AND coming to see the show.

Elevan O'Clock #32 Mama Alto part 2

This is the second part of my discussion with the incomparable Mama Alto.  It is a discussion about politics and like everything Mama does it is deeply fascinating.

Elevan O'Clock #31 Mama Alto part 1

The best description for Mama Alto comes directly from the biography on Mama's website - "Mama Alto is a gender transcendent diva, cabaret artiste, jazz singer and community activist."  Mama is also extremely fascinating to converse with.  Our chat went for over two hours and so there are three episodes of our conversation. We discuss art, politics and Mama's inspirations.  Mama is a joy to spend time with,  and I hope you enjoy the time you get to spend listening to her.
