Infamous neo-cabaret brutes Ghostboy with Golden Virtues (GBGV) are going to set alight The Garden of Unearthly Delights with their strange fire, making the Spiegeltent stage home over two nights. The Spiegeltent shows will see the band present work from their Green Room Award nominated hybrid rock cabaret _x0018_ Swallow and Exit_x0019_ , as well as new songs and tracks from their acclaimed debut album _x001C_ Enter_x001D_ (including lead singles _x001C_ Wolfish_x001D_ & _x001C_ Love Me_x001D_ which both received airplay on Triple J and rage). The show will also include re-workings of songs by the likes of Jacques Brel and Tom Waits. GBGV will be bringing with them - as very special guests - the spine tingling acapella three-part harmonies of Avaberee & as if the devil had chased The Supremes into the midnight sun. Now it is Adelaide_x0019_ s turn to dance with the butterflies of the night. ------------------------------------------------------------- LIVE REVIEWS: _x001C_ This writer has been attending the Melbourne Fringe Festival for more than two decades now, and Ghostboy with Golden Virtues are far and away the best thing I have ever seen there. Epic psychosexual rock opera theatre of the f**king absurd. This bunch should be bigger than The Tiger Lillies. Yes._x001D_ Inpress -------------------------------------------------------------_x001C_ Their attitude is punk, but their musicianship supreme & their lyrics awaken deep desires that leave us blushing with recognition. Any comparison is lame and doesn_x0019_ t do Ghostboy himself justice, but think along the lines of a high-art Hedwig but with a lot more punk and a lot sexier._x001D_ AUSSIETHEATRE.COM
