‘There’s an old chinese proverb that goes;‘
A bird doesn’t sing because it has answers
A bird sings because it has a song:’
I, however, sing because I have answers.’
Rose Lawless
‘La Vie En Rose Lawless!’
Rose Lawless, is a cabaret singer with the ghosts of history breathing down her back. For her, Cabaret is a live pulse connected to the cafes and salons where it was born. She stands on tables, sits on bars, tells jokes - and invokes the raw spirit of Parisian Fire into her show, ‘La Vie en Rose Lawless.’
She claims she was born ‘A Cabaret Animal’ - and with total fidelity to that destiny, she sings her own anarchic, clever and charged Cabaret songs. She also interprets some of the great Cabaret numbers with a unique and powerful vision.
‘I bring the carousing chaos of the street entertainer under the roof of the respectable.’
Rose Lawless is currently playing theatres, cafes, private functions, promotional events - but her favourite gigs are in the street, in cafes -and in spiegeltents.
‘My next song goes something like this -
Actually, no -
- It goes exactly like this.’
Be there for it.
