All Religions Explained – The Cabaret Musical

Antony (Dr H) Hubmayer / PBH's Free FringeSemi-professional company

60 minutescarte blanche!
A joyous, piano-pounding cabaret musical where prophets rhyme, doctrines swing and we sing our way through the sacred, celebrating faith, doubt and the gloriously human comedy of belief. Join Dr H and his cast as they answer the BIG questions of life. With a storyline straight from eternity, it’s smart comedy for the soul: light-hearted, playful, yet respectful and inclusive. Think Monty Python meets Tom Lehrer and Tim Minchin, with Broadway flair, a splash of cabaret chaos, a lot of piano virtuosity and divinely funny revelations through song. Come curious – leave enlightened.
