Mr Niblo

…our end of season last night will be a party like never before.. Come dressed in your most glamorous outfits, as we close the run with one of the countries finest cabaret acts...

Steve Rawlings – Brings an audience to life with his unique blend of comedy character and technical ability. Whether juggling Ping-Pong balls with his mouth, setting his head on fire or flinging blazing torches, furniture, giant cartwheels and tenpin bowling balls in the air, this is an act that demands attention! He has appeared in over 60 television shows and performed all over the world, as well as in front of Her Majesty the Queen at a Royal Command Performance.

"A brisk, skilful act that will get your heart in your throat and give you more belly laughs than any comic - and that’s a rare treat!" The Sunday Times

Have a look on ‘you tube’ for his film clips. There are plenty of them.

Les Vegas and The International Playboys of Rhythm – 13 fabulous musicians play old classics and contemporary tunes in a swing style. They filled the dance floor when they played our cabaret back in the summer of 2006. Glitz and glamour will spill off the stage as will some of the band! Bring your dancing shoes. www.lesvegas.co.uk

Mr Niblo – Fresh from a season on the Swansea to Ilfracombe ferry, the Incredible Niblo brings you The Satsuma Safari, Chapatti Atlas, Modern Potato Sculptures and more. You name the animal, he’ll sculpt it. You name the country, he’ll eat it. Welsh comedy at its best.

Ruff Daddy

Ruff Daddy

Bongo Bolero – Fresh from their sold-out Vegas tour, these 2 seasoned performers are delighted to present a heady mix of glamour and danger that guarantees to leave their audience gasping. A comedy involving small hair attachments and very big egos. www.bongobolero.com

“Bongo Bolero brought the house down with their wonderfully clever adagio, making the difficult balances seem effortless…” The Stage

Mike Hancock – A gorgeous comic kaleidoscope of magic moments, live music, big tricks and audience fun including an astonishing act of levitation, an audience acted love story and a live song in enhanced falsetto. He also runs our ‘sister’ cabaret in Leeds/Hebden Bridge/Otley. www.cabaretheaven.co.uk or www.mikehancock.org.uk

Ruff Daddy – More drunk and moody than Punch and Judy, this bad ass puppet is strictly for adults only. Bad Mutha interrupts Ruff Daddy’s take on modern affairs to descend into family dysfunction, everything a puppet could do and more. Wright stuff puppets made an appearance on the last series of the Dragons Den, BBC2. www.thewrightstuff.co.uk

Plus Frankie Chalet – French accordion songstress

and The Great Versilli – Russian pole master

Les Femmes Fatal

Les Femmes Fatal

Woody ‘Riceman’ Muddy – Woody takes the stage armed with a selection of LPs and CDs, and his trusted ‘Golden Hammer’. In a fury of ritualistic rice throwing he plays, then destroys each record in turn. But not before the audience cast their vote, should it get smashed? or sent to Record Heaven? www.dotcomedy.co.uk

“A breath of fresh lunacy” The Guardian

AJ James – Brings an unforgettable show with incredible feats of balance, acrobatics and martial arts, which have to be seen to be believed. His quick wittedness and memorable charm add to an exciting action packed set. www.entertrain.co.uk

"Spectacular!.. Gravity defying… Charm and wit combined with extreme agility!” The Sydney Morning Herald

Les Femmes Fatal – Millie is thwarted by her incompetent partner. Hopeless Mabel muddles through dangerious tricks that have the audiences laughing, smiling and looking on in amazement throughout. This is a stylish, witty act with characters that audiences really warm to. www.freneticengineering.co.uk/index.html

Ronald Arthur Dewhirst

Stickleback Plasticus – Ostracized by the world of competition ballroom due to an over enthusiastic technique, ex-champions Barry and Yvonne have become "Outlaws of the Dance Floors". Loved by people of all ages and nationalities, couple number 69 come equipped with a portable mirror ball and exquisite costumes. With a Rumba, a Samba and a Paso Doble like you have never seen before, Barry and Yvonne will dance anywhere, anytime, and with anybody. www.plasticus.freeserve.co.uk/

The Curious Eyebrows – Gentleman jugglers and purveyors of fine comedy. With over thirty years of juggling experience between them, these two comic fools will leave you giggling into your pints and gasping at their ball spinning, fast pace juggling and comedic timing. Back by popular demand! www.aurorascarnival.co.uk/curiouseyebrows.htm

Ronald Arthur Dewhirst – 10 years as Cabaret Heavens’ resident poet, Ronald is a master of the comic pause. Often navel gazing, he offers a refreshingly twisted view of life, both touching and hilarious.

Madame Zucchini – Theatre in a veg box, the legend continues….
