Scottish-American polymath Alan Cumming returns to the Adelaide Cabaret Festival as Artistic Director for a season of provocative and thrilling performance. His new cabaret show 'Alan Cumming Is Not Acting His Age’, an evening of story and song celebrating and exploring his puckish, eclectic spirit and joie de vivre, is set to close the festival with a joyful and mischievous exploration of that most communal of pastimes: aging!
Cumming has performed in concert halls across the globe, including the Sydney Opera House, the London Palladium, the Hollywood Bowl and Carnegie Hall. He’s played God, the Devil, Hitler, the Pope, a teleporting superhero, Hamlet, all the parts in Macbeth, and the EmCee in Cabaret in the West End and on Broadway. Spend an intimate evening with a truly remarkable performer and celebrate the final night of our 21st Adelaide Cabaret Festival.
In the underpopulated arena of male cabaret singers, Mr. Cumming may be the only one with the talent and drive to change its direction. The New York Times
So hilarious, flirty and gorgeously filthy that it's hard to decide if you want him as a new best friend or a lover. Sydney Morning Herald
The androgynous imp is both quiet and uproarious, adorable and sensual, flippant and emotional, otherworldly and inviting...this is precisely why he's an icon to behold - he is unapologetically himself, and with a talent like that, he has no need to apologize. Billboard
