Jeremy Welch had the opportunity to attend the highly acclaimed Australian circus cabaret sensation, Rouge. The production boasted a talented and professional troupe of artists, promising a night of astonishing, surprising, subversive and supremely sexy entertainment.
The show featured a mix of circus acts with a sexy twist, burlesque, dance, and even some unexpected opera. While this may seem like a chaotic blend of genres, each individual vignette was executed with finesse and skill, leaving the audience captivated.
The circus acts were particularly impressive, with daring and well-choreographed performances that kept the audience on the edge of their seats. The sexy twist added an amusing element, although it may not be to everyone's taste. One performer even arrived on stage with a lampshade on their head, stripping off in a series of contortions. And if that wasn't enough to pique your interest, there was even a female cast member wearing a carrot strap-on dildo, adding a touch of salaciousness without being crude.
The opera performance, while seemingly unrelated to the rest of the show, was a standout. The singer's powerful voice left a lasting impression, and the aria she performed was beautifully executed. As the tempo built towards the climax, the audience was treated to a raunchy and unexpected surprise that left them in stitches.
Despite lacking a clear narrative arc, Rouge more than made up for it with its individual performances. Each genre was executed with professionalism, skill, daring, and a touch of humor, leaving the audience thoroughly entertained. It was no surprise that the show received rave reviews and was a hit with the audience.
If you have the chance to catch Rouge at the Assembly Rooms Music Hall, don't miss it. Performances run from August 6th to 25th, and it's definitely worth adding to your Fringe itinerary.
