Cabaret by definition is a live art form. It’s all about being ‘in the room’, with the audience, no fourth wall, connecting with those people in that moment.
It’s ephemeral, and it’s immediate, and that’s what makes it wonderful. When all the venues closed, and all my gigs were cancelled, I felt like a little part of me had died.
Pure drama queen, right? Maybe I need other hobbies. But it was a shock, and on my birthday in March, just after the news, I had a proper freeze-down.
