The glitz and glamour of the annual Cabaret Festival returns to make Adelaide’s dreary winter sparkle a little more. 

This year helmed by new co-artistic directors Ali McGregor and Eddie Perfect, the festival is being ambitious in its scope.

Keen to showcase the potential of the cabaret medium, the pair are bringing a selection of icons, including the uber-famous Dita Von Teese as well as the people pushing the boundaries like Sven Ratzke, who will inhabit the many personas of David Bowie in his show Starman.
