Eric McFadden provides a dark, sexy soundscape as each artist inspires, delights, and thrills.

This year's lineup includes artists from all over the world. Below are a few of the artist sharing the stage this year. There are more to come and always some surprises.

Sadie Angel

We have just added Sadie Angel. Yes that is her doing a single arm stand while shooting a bow and arrow upside down with her feet. Yes she really does that. Yes it will be in the show, only better because the music will be Eric McFadden live. You will be blown away.

Pink Puma

Her physicality and grace are like nothing you have ever seen. Watching her it's easy to forget just how dangerous it is to do tricks twenty feet in the air. She makes the most challenging tricks look like floating in a quiet grotto. Last year Pink Puma blew us all away with her physicality and grace but we only had her for one weekend. This year Pink Puma is bringing her specialty to us. Promising a nexus of masterful control, creativity, and fearless athleticism. Like you, we can't wait to see what she brings.

Dafe du Flambè

Your host, Paul and Frank Olivier will be bringing Cafe Du Flambe. It's one of our favorite bits to perform and one of our guests favorite acts to share.

Event image

The Beautiful Jewels

Jewels is flying in from Germany just to be with us. Her artistry is not just elegant but whimsical as well. We all dream. We dream about work and play and life and things we imagine. For Dark Kabaret Jewels invites us to share a dream she had about work. Of course she works in the circus, so her dreams are a little bit different.

Event image

Frank Olivier

Frankie is a creative force of nature. We are all just lucky that he uses his power for good and not for something evil like lawering or tech... No one owns the stage like Frank and no one is more fun to share the stage with. Frank says he's got something special for us and I believe him. We are all going to have a blast with Funny Frank.

Event image

Rosemary Le

If have seen Rosemary Le in one of our shows then you may know that she is an evil scientist by day working for a tech company to use lasers for mind control experiments. (All true)

The experiments are working better than anyone ever imagined. What her bosses don't know is that Rosemary has got herself an evil lair in the fly loft above the stage at Dark Kabaret where she has perfected her invention

So if you feel yourself start to fall in love with our lithe, spinning, scientist then it may be her blazing talent. Or it could be the way she effortlessly moves from one impossible position to the next, seemingly without a care in the world. Or it just might be that you have fallen victim to one her most powerful Mind Control Lasers. Lookout or she will make willing servants of us all.

(hint) Ask the staff about aluminum hat making supplies. Your only defense is to dawn your home made aluminum helmet and hope fo the best. Good luck my friends... It's too late for us... We're hooked for life.

Event image

Eric McFadden

Eric's music transports you to our world. There is no defense. The sounds imbue you with primal feelings. Haunting thoughts come unbidden as Eric's gravel smooth poetry and guitar speak directly to your soul. Step right up my friends... Your at the circus now. A very weird, dark circus. Welcopme to Dark Kabaret - Anything can happen here.

It's a delicious conversation that is a joy to participate in and something special to experience in the crowd. The clip below isn't from Dark Kabaret but it should give you an idea of Eric's artful mastery of the guitar and his charismatic electricity on stage.

Kate Vargas

Kate weaves a musical spell that will leave you in thrall. She's only there the first weekend though so if you want that Vargas Effect then you got to get to it.
