Hilarious, macabre, and touching, this epic queer song-cycle from cabaret star Dr Adam Perchard and award-winning composer Richard Thomas will slay you Dr Adam Perchard (cabaret star, comedian, poet, and occasional fortune-teller to the international elite) is an old vamp with one hell of a backstory and Richard Thomas (Oliver Award-winning composer of Jerry Springer the Opera) is here to get the scoop! Featuring dazzling original music, vocal fireworks, and rampant repartee, sit back and let this iconic duo take you on a whirlwind tour of the doctors brain. By turns joyful, dark, and extremely silly, the interview covers everything from hyper-realistic cakes to how to negotiate a nervous breakdown in Darlington, from giant bugs to finding love at an orgy and it reveals whats really going through your university lecturers brain when theyre teaching you Romantic poetry. With an Olivier Award-winning composer asking the questions and an international singing star giving the answers, this is an interview like youve never seen or heard. Dr Adam Perchard is a mainstay of cabaret stages across Europe and the US and an icon of the East London queer scene. They have performed at the National Theatre, London Coliseum, Soho Theatre, Hackney Empire, and on Channel 4, and last year their solo show Bathtime for Britain toured major theatres across the UK. An escaped academic as well as a trained opera singer, they have also published widely in the fields of postcolonial literature and eighteenth-century studies. Richard Thomas (Jerry Springer the Opera, Made in Dagenham, Black Sabbath The Ballet, and Tracey Ullman Show BBC1/HBO) is an Olivier Award-winning composer and lyricist. His work has been performed all over the world from Carnegie Hall, National Theatre, Royal Opera House, Sydney Opera House, to the West End and every Gay Pride on the planet.
