A really fun late night show. With the mute & midly disturbing plague doctor, Dr Bonk, taking on the emcee role with charm, wit and dubious medical procedures - along with four acts (different each show). The acts we saw were proper cabaret! - a confused Paul McCartney with a fear of snakes and issues with mic stands, a depressed northern Dracula, a spooky story teller giving impromptu tarot readings and an energetic drag queen who everyone thought may have died until she crawled off stage! Great way to round of the day, strongly recommend.
