Reuben Kaye: APOCALIPSTIK

Reuben Kaye: APOCALIPSTIK

Musical Direction & Arrangements by Shanon D. Whitelock

Loud, politically active, queer, brash. Multi-award winning, Australian comedian, singer, and writer Reuben Kaye returns to Perth FRINGE WORLD with the world premiere of APOCALIPSTIK. Part eulogy, part elegy, part Eastern Bloc Dog Day Afternoon. This scandalous story of Reuben’s scoundrel Uncle springboards into a cabaret that crosses continents, generations, and the political spectrum of the 20th century.

“He is quite simply magnificent, born to perform and possessed of such utterly innate charisma…” ★★★★★ Arts Hub

“Kaye is an indefatigable showman...” ★★★★½ Sydney Morning Herald

“Reuben Kaye is a force of nature…and an important voice for all of us.” Stage Whispers

Vocals to elicit goosebumps & neck hair to stand to attention, he weaves his incredible family story in to his cabaret & political observances with a sharp tongue & very clever mind...I'm obsessed!
