Choreographed by Louise Deleur, Dancing with Bach captivates through the richness of the live cello and the intimacy between the dancers and internationally-renowned Baroque cellist Louise King.

Dancing with Bach will be preceded by the premiere of a new short work Surge, featuring Max Richter’s “Europe, After The Rain”.

Drawing inspiration from Bach’s evocative Cello Suites, this contemporary ballet work weaves a thread through the emotional, artful and mysterious life of the celebrated composer.

Roll in the deep with Adele: Grammy® goddess, young mum and potty-mouthed everywoman.

Banded with a buffet of Brisbane’s best musicians, Adele spills intimate details about life on the road, love on the rocks and the prick who took a sledge hammer to her heart. Following sell-out shows at the 2012 Brisbane Cabaret Festival, this wickedly satirical cabaret now returns to town bigger and bustier for three nights only.
