Mother’s Ruin: a Gin Cabaret

Date: Saturday, Jul 29 2017
Time: 8:30pm
Venue: Old Market Assembly
Price: £15
Artists
Maeve Marsden, Libby Wood

Come and experience the darkly humorous underbelly of the history of gin.

“We’ll have gin cocktails available all night long as well as our own Assembly infusions and with a VIP ticket you will even get our Mother’s Ruin G&T on arrival and a range of delicious nibbles delivered straight to your table.

“But enough about us! What about the show? Starring two rising cabaret stars, Maeve Marsden and Libby Wood, Mother’s Ruin has played sold out shows to critical acclaim right across Australia. Equal parts historical and hysterical: lose yourself in the company of sailors, barmaids and bootleggers in this darkly comic cabaret “…It’s not only vocally sublime but a stroke of comedy genius.” (TheatrePress)”
