Cult cabaret sensations Bourgeois & Maurice return to planet earth for one spectacular night for Westival!
Blending the line between contemporary cabaret, alternative comedy and prancing around in sequins, Bourgeois & Maurice have established themselves as one of the UK’s most subversive and innovative musical acts. Their work has been seen around the globe from New York to Belgrade, from a converted public toilet to the Royal Opera House. They’ve won awards, released 5 albums and even performed for [REDACTED DUE TO THREATENING NDA] but they are still as humble, caring and hungry for attention as ever.
Drawing songs from the shadowy abyss of their back catalogue, B&M will take audiences on a hilarious, heartfelt and highly inappropriate journey into the strangest reaches of their minds. Expect future hits, old hits and perhaps the odd costume change or five.
Joining them on the night for support will be local mouthpiece Floozy, from Floozy & Bluesy, who had a sold out show at Westival last year. This will be an evening of giggles, glitter, and some questionable lyrics.
Doors at 19:00, Show at 19:30
