Start spreading the news! Sydney's favourite cabaret night, SHOW QUEEN, is back starting Sunday 24 September. Hosted by Trevor Ashley, SHOW QUEEN features a handpicked line-up of Australia's most talented and celebrated musical theatre stars alongside the next generation of performers.
Celebrating ten years since the first SHOW QUEEN at its birthplace, Ginger's on Oxford Street, the return season opening night features Helpmann Award winner Alex Rathgeber (Anything Goes, The Wizard of Oz), Erin Clare (We Will Rock You, Heathers), Stephen Madsen (Heathers, Muriel's Wedding), Margi de Ferranti (Ruthless, Mamma Mia), Tom Sharah (Muriel's Wedding) and cabaret icon Catherine Alcorn (Cathartic, 5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche).
Trevor began SHOW QUEEN in 2007 to highlight the exceptional emerging talent in Australia, and only put it on hold to cement his status as the 'busiest man in Australian show-business' amid sell-out tours of Liza on an 'E, Liza's Back (Is Broken) and Diamonds Are For Trevor (also broadcast on Foxtel), and leading roles in Hairspray, Les Miserables (Helpmann Award nominee) and Jesus Christ Superstar, as well directing Heathers: The Musical (Hayes Theatre Co and Sydney Opera House) and Mack & Mabel (Hayes Theatre Co).
The revised format promises to have more glamour, more excitement and more musical royalty than before, featuring the most loved songs of Broadway and new interpretations of classic showstoppers.
SHOW QUEEN returns Sunday 24 September 2017 with doors open from 6.30pm
Ginger's on Oxford St, First Floor, Oxford Hotel, 134 Oxford St, Darlinghurst
