If the absolutely gorgeous audience response at The Barber Shop tonight is anything to go by, we did not forget how to put in a show during those long sad months when the theatres were closed. We DID however forget how to take a good pre-show selfie.

Five years ago we did our photoshoot with Patrick Boland Photography at The Barber Shop hoping our little cabaret about gin might be a success. Now, thousands of G&Ts later, with hundreds of shows around the world under our belt, a little older and a lot tireder, it’ll be fun to sing a few tunes here tonight.

We can’t wait!

Get loose with cabaret stars Maeve Marsden & Libby Wood at a juniper-fueled musical extravaganza celebrating all things gin!

Hot Gin Punch at the Barbershop is the speakeasy of your dreams, a vaudevillian set list of songs about gin (and songs you didn't know were about gin til we got our hands on them). Channel your inner barmaid, bootlegger or master distiller and surrender to an evening of mischief, mayhem, belting vocals and sweet, sweet harmonies

We have very limited tickets for this one! Tickets available via our website, link in our bio...

The show will kick off at 8.30pm!

Sydney, it's been a while between drinks! We're taking over The Barbershop for an evening of gin-themed tunes (and some fun pop covers) for Hot Gin Punch, one night only May 5. Tickets are on sale NOW. Join us for a cocktail or three, this will be the last gig for a while because Maeve is taking that 'mother's ruin' moniker seriously and will be 7 months pregnant for the show! Come see what happens when one singer is sober and the other is double-fisting the G&Ts!
