Up Up Cabaret!

Zuleika and Richie

As Zuleika said a while ago a merry band of us finally gave The Cube it’s first cabaret night, and what a fine one it was.

Zuleika was Ernie Wise to my Eric Morecambe, ie I told bad jokes while she tried to keep things profesional…….


We had lots for the punters, Zuleika kicked off with her Cabinet of Curiosities, then Accordion and Magic with David Boulibaisse, Muzak by Casey O, acrobatics by (oops I forget!), outdoor fireshow by Chimearea Fire Show and Burlesque by The Scarlet Vixens and also a bit of audience participation with 3 punters trying a bit of Burlesque striptease themselves….

Did I mention my bad jokes? Well the crowd also got my bad Djing also (and that’s not in the sense of being ‘wicked and bad‘ as young people might say).
We could never of done it without the unsung heroes and heroines of the Cube, Bel and the Staff

Thanks also To Meg Paradise for the pics and clips and Bryn for the pics too. Also a huge thankyou to everyone who came and made it such a fun night, I, for one, love every single one of you.

Ciao for now, Richie Paradise Richie Paradise

About Time

Well, it’s been a long time . . .

. . . the clocks just went back, and I just got an email from Gabriel DeKadt our man in España, apologising for taking so long to send his pics from New Year’s Eve . . .

me

. . . hopefully this will spur me on to edit and upload various seriously backlogged cubelogy things from January ( Dudley Sutton – come on ! ) and on ( Love Science at least ! ), and before and beyond the Cube ( the Drawathon at Here in late 2006 – what’s taking you so long ! ).

Meanwhile in a Richie P style, with Gabs wielding the camera I am given an opportunity to post many pics of myself . . .

me

. . . and some more . . .

me

. . . chatting in the centre top one there to Strangeways from the time-travelling good Vexkiddy, who ( along with playing Bristol Meth, which I guess I should cover here too ), was played on Radio 1 last night, as were Big Joan on Huw Stephens. The Computer’s been getting about a bit on One too, infiltrating his way out of the post-midnight hours with a week’s worth of appearances on Colin Murray‘s show.

Meanwhile, golden fools, there’s a new batch of Cube Cola being cooked up on the afternoon of April the First . . . help, company and camera people all welcome . . . however much time it takes you to eventually upload . . .

The Cube Cabaret!!

And some more sketches and a photo or two from

The First Ever Cube Vaudeville, Zuleika Ziegfeld’s Cabaret of Curiosities

David Bouillabaisse
David Bouilabaisse trained with the Dave Fish Theatre Company before dedicating himself to the art of legerdemain.
A great performance.

The Dressing Up Box

Ziegfeld and Kirby talk big
We discuss the next Cabaret.

Lounge
That bloke who danced all night, lounging.

Mirrors
Zuleika Ziegfeld, after several Rums, gets home to take her own photo and record the prosperity of The Lashes

A tonne of thanks to rest of the Cabaret, especially the super hard working Bella Bel, the amazing performers including the fandabulous Scarlet Vixens and all those in attendence.

The Lashes

Some Sketches

A Magical Cupcake of E-Number Delights
As you can see from David’s post below, this wonder was created with
five tubes of Writing Icing (thanks to Bristol City Council funding).

We love Cafe Kino
On a Saturday afternoon. With Hoppo, James, Amy and myself.

Cube Dancing
16th february 2007, this was the Light Fantastic/Chris Corsano night. Myself and Richie instigated a mini-party,
my favourite thing ever.

Circus Folk by Zuleika
Nothing to do with the Cube, but a sketch of some Circus characters.

A Cabaret of Curiosities…tomorrow

Unless you are being tempted by the electro and gold paved streets of the metropolis,
in which case ‘hur-umph!’,
you are sure to be entranced by tomorrow nights diversionary, delusionary delights by twilight….

Sat 24th / 7.30pm / £6/5
Drinks discounts for the fabulously attired.

Roll up! Roll up! Miss Zuleika Ziegfield and her rakish entourage bring you the
highs of the musical theatre, the lows of the Vaudeville stage, and all places
inbetween – a razzle-dazzle cavalcade of musical entertainments for the
knowingly low-brow, with accompanying dance, acrobatics, legerdemain and similar
diversionary delights.

Featuring the Scarlet Vixens, Idiosync Acro, David Bouillabaisse, Chimaera Fire Show, Zuleika’s Cabinet of Curiosities and musical delights from Richie Paradise.

Positively for this night only!

You can have anything you want in life if you dress for it.
