Eva Johansen's A Preamble
14th Apr 2009 - 25th Apr 2009
Presenter: Eva Johansen
Website:
Event Duration: 45 minutes
An astounding tour de force performance of devastating comic genius... If only she could get the lights to work.
Renowned MC of lascivious and irreverent comedy group The Caravan of Love, Eva Johansen has stepped out on her own with a ballad to the hopeless, a homage to procrastinators and a celebration of daydreamers everywhere. Traversing a myriad of comic influences such as vaudeville, silent film, mime, slapstick and cabaret ‘A Preamble’ is a delightfully meandering narrative as touching, funny, messy and chaotic as life itself.
Nominated for 2008 Green Room Award for Cabaret - Innovative Use of Form.
"An original balance of clown and ingénue, she effortlessly switches from slapstick routine to heat-breaking, room-silencing song.” aussietheatre.com
