Adelaide
Cabaret Festival Sets Dates Through 2004
For two weeks in May 2001,
the inaugural Adelaide Cabaret Festival in Australia painted the town
red with music, song, traditional and innovative Cabaret. Some 38,000
patrons enjoyed the best of international, national and local artists
as they filled the Adelaide Festival Centre and selected West End
venues with memorable Cabaret performances.
The first of its kind in
Australia, the Adelaide Cabaret Festival offered audiences exciting,
successful cabaret performance, which may not have been economically
viable outside a festival context. The festival also provided emerging
and local artists with the opportunity to develop their craft and
access a broader audience.
The philosophy of the Adelaide
Cabaret Festival was and is to redefine and reinvent cabaret for the
new millennium as a format, which embraces a wide range of performance
styles and can appeal to all audience demographics.
The stakeholders of the
Adelaide Cabaret Festival also had desired outcomes for the Festival
in 2001 and subsequent years including the creation of a new and successful
mid-year destination for Adelaide.
The Adelaide Cabaret Festival
has been scheduled in the city's event calendar for the next three
years: June 7th through 23rd, 2002; May 23rd through June 9th, 2003;
June 11th through 27th, 2004.
