STARDUST Starring Star Dust (In Person)
A gloriously unhinged, glitter-soaked cabaret meltdown from a fallen icon who’s lost it all but won’t stop singing. Through tales, songs and cabin approved carry-on, Star Dust unpacks life’s big questions: What happens when the lights go out? How do you survive a broken heart? And why is she so dusty? Join Star Dust in her living room as she rises like a gold-sprayed phoenix, to reclaim her legacy one power ballad, emotional spiral and audience singalong at a time. This fringe debut from Punchdrunk’s Kat McGarr ('she's witty, mad, hilarious' - Time Out) is a gloriously silly and savagely honest transformation of grief into a tragicomic tour de force; absurd, funny and profound. Expect glamour, chaos, clowning, a confetti of catharsis, and a show-stopping finale of hope. Think: Gloria Swanson meets Fleabag at a wake. Sprayed gold. With snacks. Kat McGarr is an actor, writer, director, cabaret performer & clown with a 20-year career across theatre, screen, and immersive experiences. Robyn Herfellow (they/them) - on musical collaboration & keys - also collaborates with Séayoncé, drag unroyalty Jonny Woo, and Mawaan Rizwan & The Tracksuits.

Apocalypse Cabaret: Songs for the End of the World
A lonely karaoke jockey is the sole survivor at the end of the world, and decides to go out singing. A darkly hilarious, high-octane spectacle, where Nietzsche meets the Spice Girls, and the world ends in song. Chanteuse, comedian, and chaos enthusiast Scout Durwood (MTV’s Mary + Jane) hailed as 'brazen, brass' (Vogue), makes a powerhouse Fringe debut packed with original songs, pop bangers, audience interaction, and existential musings. This full-throttle celebration of life at the edge of the abyss asks the big question: is there time for one more song?
