The Ellington Jazz Club and the Perth Cabaret Collective welcome you to an incredible event with the musical talent of the Perth Cabaret Collective for FRINGE WORLD Perth 2026!
With Musical Director Jess Herbert performing on the Bari Sax, Erin Royer on Alto Sax, Oliver Tyler on Tenor Sax, Marty Pervan on Trumpet, Matt Knight on Trumpet, Steve Bicklet on Trombone, Tom Salieo on Keys, Cass Evans-Ocharen on Bass, and Daniel Harrison on Drums, the energy and excitement constantly stayed throughout the performance and uplifted the audience as they took in the amazing musical talents before them.
From the introductions of each talented musician and performer to the openness of audience engagement, it is easy to understand how this incredible collective had a sold-out show for the Friday night performance.
Throughout the show, the Perth Cabaret Collective kept the pace and continued to build it up, perfectly weaving between each song with skill and perfection - even as the incredible singers for the night stepped on and off of the stage throughout the night.
The two singers gracing the stage for this incredible event included the talented singer and drag performer Cougar Morrison and the amazing Simone Craddock.
Both Cougar Morrison and Simone Craddock knew their songs well and entranced the audience with their vocals and performance abilities, connecting and joking with the audience before seamlessly beginning their numbers throughout the night.
If you have ever wanted to see a Cabaret or Jazz show in Perth before, this is definitely one to see for this FRINGE WORLD season!
