Charlee Watt: Caffeine Fiend - A Coffee Cabaret
How do you take your cabaret—smooth, strong, or slightly unhinged?
Award-winning cabaret artist Charlee Watt serves up Caffeine Fiend: a coffee-fuelled, jazz-infused celebration of connection, comfort and the rituals that keep us grounded when the world goes off the rails. With powerhouse vocals and wicked wit, Charlee reimagines classics by Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and more, blending vintage glamour with contemporary chaos.
Winner of the 2025 Adelaide Cabaret Fringe Debut Award & 2026 Adelaide Fringe NZ Tour Ready Award.
"Caffeine Fiend takes us to a jazzy cafe with sultry sounds and powerhouse vocals" ★★★★ Glam Adelaide, 2025
"With her effortless jazz singing voice and charming wit... A voice like hers is not one to miss." FringeFeed, 2026
