Proudly presenting Oz Cabaret Icons, Duets and WA’s Best… With four shows down and four to go, Downstairs at The Maj 2019 Season is set to present some of cabaret’s best this spring and summer, with special events for Christmas and Pride. The hottest selling shows – of living legend and original Les Girl Carlotta and Helpmann Award winner Michael Griffiths – have each added an extra (4 th) performance to their seasons. And they’re not the only ones Perth loves.

October 31 sees cabaret power couple and regular Maj visitors Melissa Langton and Mark Jones – with a slew of Australian cabaret awards between them – begin their 7 th(!) season Downstairs in 15 years, and it’s on track to be another sell-out. “We LOVE Perth,” said Langton, “whether it’s a fringe show or cabaret season, WA has always been quick to pick up what we’ve put down and they’re audiences we have a lot of fun with.” The couple, married off-stage as well as on – who recently toured Still Living in the 70s and Good Day Sunshine: The Lennon & McCartney Songbook (which they’ll encore in the main His Majesty’s Theatre auditorium 30 October) – now bring us the greatest hits of the free love era in What’s New Pussycat. This joyous, foot-stamping, hand-clapping celebration of the swinging 60s features favourites by Tom Jones, Aretha Franklin and Dusty Springfield, plus Nancy Sinatra’s These Boots Are Made for Walkin’, and a special medley for lovers of John Denver and The Fab Four.

The original equality activist, singer and inspiration for Priscilla…, Carlotta makes a long-awaited return to Perth this November. Queen of the Cross celebrates 50 years on stage for the icon and will be part of this year’s PrideFEST 30th anniversary celebrations. Michael Griffiths will accompany on piano following his own all but sold-out October season By Request complete with live band. Homegrown talent takes the fore for a charitable cause this festive season as November sees Katt Osborne direct some of Perth’s favourite performers – Nick Maclaine, Jo Morris and Igor Sas – in George Bailey’s heart-warming It’s a Wonderful Life as a live radio play. Proceeds will go to Anglicare, supporting people struggling with poverty and homelessness this Christmas.

To farewell 2019, join Perth Cabaret Collective for A Festive Jamboree. With fave WA vocalists Jesse Gordon, Cougar Morrison (sugar and spice) and Mark Turner fronting the band, it’ll be a night of merriment full of all that’s naughty and nice about the silly season and the songs that go with it. Whatever your musical bent, there are few better places to get together in comfort and style – with family, friends or a significant someone – for drinks and great entertainment than Perth’s premier underground cabaret gem Downstairs at The Maj. To make your night even more complete, visit some of The Maj’s neighbours offering discounts and special offers on food and drinks with your show ticket before or after performances.

Review of “Under the Milky Way” By Trevor Jones

There was a hush in the audience – then suddenly we heard a beautiful voice singing from the audience and Trevor Jones jumped onto the stage like a bolt of lightening and started singing “Man overboard.” This really got the audience into the right mood, with all of them joining in the chorus. It was obvious Trevor had instantly captured the heart of all his audience. What a glorious way to open a show!!!

It is obvious Trevor is a seasoned performer. He was able to hold the audience in the palm of his hand throughout the show. I did not notice anyone’s interest flagging at any point in the show.

This is because of the collection of songs that he chose for this wonderful performance entitled “Under the Milky way”. The songs varied from Peter Allen to Olivia Newton John and Kylie Minogue to name a few.

Many of the songs were preceded by humorous anecdotes that just added flavour to the whole situation.

The show takes place in the beautiful and intimate Downstairs at the Maj. This is a wonderful place to have a drink, enjoy some eats and savour every moment of Trevor’s singing.

If you have not heard of Trevor and not been to the Maj. – This is the time to make a trip. Trevor is a real delight and you cannot find a better venue for his music than the very comfortable and intimate Maj.

The show is on only for this Friday and Saturday (18th & 19th July) – so get in quick because I have been told tickets are selling very fast.

A VERY MEMORABLE NIGHT INDEED. DO NOT MISS IT. YOU WILL REALLY REGRET IT- IF YOU ENJOY GOOD MUSIC.


We came to know Peter Asher via his 10 Top 40 hits with Peter & Gordon, whose #1 hit debut single A World Without Love was gifted to them by Paul McCartney. Peter & Gordon toured Australia in 1964, and scored subsequent Australian top ten hits with Lennon/McCartney’s Nobody I Know and I Don’t Want to See You Again, Buddy Holly’s True Love Ways, Del Shannon’s I Go To Pieces, Woman (another McCartney song), Lady Godiva (the 6th biggest selling song in Australia in ’66!) and Knight In Rusty Armour. Peter’s subsequent days as A&R Director for the Beatles’ Apple Records also made history, and he became a legend as Producer and Manager of James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt and a host of others after moving to California at the end of the ‘60s. He remains the only Artist Manager to be featured on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, and his studio work has led to 2 Grammy Awards for “Producer of the Year”.

  

Albert Lee first toured Australia with Joe Cocker in 1974, and most recently in 2018 performing to much acclaim at shows including the Sydney & Adelaide Guitar Festivals, Melbourne Guitar Show and the Gympie Muster. Albert began his career as a touring musician in the early sixties, and soon catapulted onto the stage with the likes of Buddy Holly’s Crickets, Eric Clapton, and Emmylou Harris. A 25-year run as Music Director of his beloved Everly Brothers coincided with studio and stage work with Vince Gill, Rosanne Cash, Bill Wyman’s Rhythm Kings and Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr (“The Concert for George”). Even with all this, he found the time for over 10 solo and band albums under his own moniker. His numerous studio sessions have led to 2 Grammy Awards and 4 nominations.

Peter Asher & Albert Lee’s history is one of song, and these duo storyteller shows will reflect that history and feature those songs. The songs that influenced them along with songs they influenced. From the Peter & Gordon catalogue, they will harmonize on A World Without Love, I Go To Pieces, and more. From Albert Lee’s back pages, expect the Jimmy Webb penned title track from his new acoustic album, The Highwayman, Glenn Campbell’s A Better Place, and the Jimmy Jones/Otis Blackwell classic Handy Man. Inspirations to both artists such as the Everly Brothers provide Crying in the Rain and Bye Bye Love, while from Buddy Holly comes Well, All Right. As Peter & Albert tell us stories of the travels that brought them to so many of the intersections along the road of music history, the two legends bring these timeless songs to life.

“Peter Asher’s voice literally soared through Carnegie Hall” (Fox News). “Albert Lee is the ultimate virtuoso” (Eric Clapton).

BEAUTY IN THE BEAST

PRESENTED BY SIMONE SPITTLE 13th – 20TH July 2019 Beauty In The Beast: In a whirlwind of fairy tales sold to us since birth, ‘Beauty In The Beast’ is a collection of funny, moving and honest reality checks presented in song

Vulnerability opens us to profound pain and loss, but if you want profound joy it’s a risk worth taking. The human experience is not a static state. You were not born to be one dimensional. You were born to live a colourful life, rich in connection, learning and healing. It’s in the awkwardly comical exchanges, desperately lonely hours and the moments we stand up and say ‘this is my truth’, that we face the greatest beast in our lives – ourselves.

The brainchild of singer-songwriter Simone Spittle, ‘Beauty In The Beast’ captures her awkward dating years, family sagas and growing pain dramas in a way that will make you think, ‘oh, you too?’. Simone is a classically trained pianist and singer-songwriter with a flair for true stories stripped bare into ballads, fused with honeyed vocals and a side of comedic relief. Hailing from the west coast, Simone has spent most of the last decade travelling and working around Australia as a Nurse and Midwife and brings a wealth of life experience to the stage. Showcasing her signature comedic and conversational song-writing ‘Beauty In The Beast’ is for anyone who enjoys authentic, ridiculously funny and engaging stories and music. This production opens on 13th July for one show only in Perth and runs for SEASON LENGTH in Melbourne from 15th – 20th July. Bookings recommended.

Show Details: Beauty In The Beast Dates: Saturday 13th July Time: 7.30pm Cost: $18-25 Venue: Subiaco Arts Centre Tickets: ptt.wa.gov.au/venues/subiaco-arts-centre/whats-on/beauty-in-the-beast/

FLOOR THIRTEEN

FLOOR THIRTEEN PERTH’S MOST PROMISING PERFORMANCE MAKERS LOOK AT THE FOUNDATIONS OF MEMORIES AND HOW WE TELL OUR OWN STORY Delve into a world where nothing is safe. FLOOR THIRTEEN follows the story of Phoebe, a woman who’s had a big night. It’s 3am and she’s trapped in an elevator with nothing but a half-empty bottle of Moet and her anxious thoughts. Profoundly alone, wrecked and panicking, she’s trying to figure out her next move. Over and over again, she ruminates on her memories from the evening. She’s got to get her story straight… Race through a mind in turmoil and be prepared to question everything; this is Memento meets Chunky Move. Fast lights, throbbing beats – FLOOR THIRTEEN is a trip down memory lane in fifth gear. Recent WAAPA graduates Marshall Stay (DAD, THE COCKBURN INCIDENT), Elise Wilson (COOKIES AND CREAM, GRACE) and Courtney Henri, (GIRL & THING) are behind this premiere work as part of The Blue Room Theatre’s 2019 season. “This show will be a smorgasbord for the senses. It will be an experience that ignites our curiosities about memory and imagination by experimenting with movement and text. We are investigating how we see the world through a first-person point of view and we’re looking at the narrative of our own identity and how we retell stories to one another. Do we pitch ourselves as the hero, survivor or villain?” says Elise Wilson. Using cutting-edge technology, live projection and voice manipulations and an incredible ensemble of WAAPA graduates comes FLOOR THIRTEEN, a bold and powerful new work infused with clever tricks and sharp storytelling to create a memory-scape that slides between a party, a childhood home and Kings Park. Director Marshall Stay is excited to explore the physicality and malleability of memory in this piece. “We invite the audience to piece together the truth” says Stay. “Expect this journey to be dark, surprising and leave you second guessing everything you see.” Strap in for this thrilling ride with one woman and all the spooks her mind can conjure.

FLOOR THIRTEEN When, 7pm, 25th June – 13th July, 2019 Where: The Blue Room Theatre, Perth Cultural Centre, Northbridge Bookings: blueroom.org.au | (08) 9227 7005 Tickets: $20 – $30

OF PENGUINS AND MEN

Ballpoint Penguins and the Men of the West — Comic A Cappella Interspecies Cabaret

Roll up, roll up for the greatest show in Perth. And Fremantle! NEVER BEFORE have these two giants of choral madness appeared together on one stage. EXPERIENCE the MEN OF THE WEST and the BALLPOINT PENGUINS as they walk the tightrope between comedy and good taste. HEAR them performing together on the flying a cappella trapeze, with no instrumental net, without falling flat! For ONE NIGHT ONLY, 140 lucky people will join these celebrated clowns of song mixing it up with each other’s repertoires. Get your tickets now, while they last!

This stylish musical package conceals subversive wit and wordcraft on intelligent design, Tupperware obsession, the aphrodisiac power of the common vacuum cleaner and ridding your home of excess adult offspring. These original a cappella comedians storm the intellectual barricades of right-minded folk. Anticipate the unexpected, plus classic musical mischief from Python to Lehrer and Flanders to Swann.

The Ballpoint Penguins live in Perth, Western Australia and perform at music festivals all over Australia.

The Men of the West are a dark, behatted behemoth of blokes, singing anything from Georgian table songs to “improbable hits”. This mysterious male voice choir from Perth Western Australia first appeared at the Fairbridge festival in 2005. Since then they have materialised at many times and places, mainly in the general vicinity Fremantle, but also in regional WA and at the Adelaide Fringe Festival in 2014 and 2015.

In their musical “oeuvre” the Men if the West valiantly attempt to redefine the predicament of the modern man while attempting to scale the peaks of pointless grandeur, magnificent manhomery, and poignant pathos. Led by director Ryan Morrison, much of the material is original songs from the zany hand of Stephen Taberner, founder of the Spooky Men’s Chorale, and includes crowd favourites like “Don’t Stand Between a Man and his Tool”.

The Men of the West were originally known as the Spooky Men of the West.  At odd times they have also appeared in the guise of the Dark Knights of Song.

DATE: Sunday 14 October

PLACE: Little Creatures Next Door, Mews Road Fremantle.
