From the West End to the wild side, fiery-haired songstress Kara Lane — star of Rebecca the Musical and The Addams Family — ignites the stage in her sizzling new cabaret, 50 Shades of Red — a musical journey through the many emotions the colour red dares to reveal. From the blush of first love to the heat of forbidden desire, from the flames of obsession to the burn of heartbreak and fury, Kara paints the town red with her bold and vibrant voice.
Accompanied by acclaimed music director, Simon Beck, and featuring songs that pulse with passion, lust, danger, and devotion, 50 Shades of Red is a sultry, soulful exploration of life lived in full colour. Expect humour, heart, and a few scorch marks…
