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.
