PERFORMANCE: Marney McQueen - Is a Rump Steak at a Vegan Barbeque Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:00 - Octagon Theatre In this fresh and hilarious cabaret, the ever-surprising triple threat Marney McQueen spills the dirt from behind the theatrical curtain. As a leading lady in the big gay musicals Hairspray and Priscilla Queen of the Desert, this single girl felt like a juicy rump steak at a vegan BBQ. Trading men and mating for sequins and showboys, here is the musical story of a globe-trotting starlet who found no Sex in the Cities. Not a sausage. Hot-on-the-heels of sell-out character cabaret shows in Melbourne, Sydney, London, Edinburgh and New York, Rump Steak showcases Marney's hilarious songwriting and character observations as she presents her first-ever Australian cabaret show as herself… with a little help from celebrity beautician Rosa Waxoffski and friends. This show was a sell out in its recent London season and is now heading to Perth for ONE NIGHT ONLY! SPECIAL TICKET OFFER FOR UWA STAFF: $40 tickets (save $10!) Discounted tickets can only be purchased at the door. Box Office open from 7pm. ‘Marney McQueen is a force to be reckoned with.’ The Age. ‘There is something in the theatre called a triple threat, performers who can sing, dance and act. If there is something beyond that, it's Marney McQueen.’ The West Australian. ‘A sure fire hit’. Edinburgh Guide. ‘Marney McQueen is a true chameleon entertainer. She is also hilariously funny.’ Jacki Weaver. ‘She has the goods.’ Barry Humphries.
