Closure Cabaret

Fri 5 Jun £18.39 Soho Theatre

A vaudevillian variety show hosted by Razmatastique, a French-accented emcee who cannot let her exes rest in peace. The performer summons former romantic partners back for cabaret acts in pursuit of closure.

Each ex returns as a character, from bad-boy playground pirates to wannabe hip-hop stars and emotionally unavailable illusionists, performing with jazz hands and theatrical flair. The show features quick changes, original music, and audience participation as the host guides viewers through an odyssey of romantic misadventure.

Created and performed by Maria Ansdell, this solo clown comedy explores romance as performance and heartbreak as compulsive repetition. Described as existing between a theatrical fever dream and an emotional exorcism, it poses the question: who has the 'Ex Factor'?
