Frome is set to sparkle on Tuesday 8th July as Rainbow Paradiso, a dazzling cabaret night, takes over the Cheese and Grain main stage for an evening of music, comedy and colour.
The show, which has already wowed audiences in Bath at Komedia, is on Tuesday 8th July and features professional artists, including local band Sweet Machine and the Frome Show Choir.
Leading the night is international queen of charisma, Kiki Babs, who promises glamour, laughter and a chance for the audience to shine with fun games and a lip sync challenge (yes, there are prizes!). Kiki will be joined by the seriously amusing Professor of Whimsy, Robert Garnham, and LED acrobatic dancer, Ember Elation, bringing visual magic to the evening.
Sweet Machine is a Frome Festival favourite with gigs at the Silk Mill and the Tree House, fresh from the Brighton Fringe Festival. This locally-based band plays original 80s influenced electro-pop, think Pet Shop Boys meets Human League, but are not averse to a bit of Kylie and are known to indulge in the Time Warp!
The Frome Show Choir will join the band to perform Sweet Machine’s new single, the Rainbow Paradiso anthem, and are looking forward to the chance to display their musical magic to a wider audience.
Local DJ Tashphrodisiac ends the night with a chance to boogie.
“It’s going to be bright, loud and fun,” says the organisers. “All are encouraged to enter into the spirit and let their hair down. Dress to impress – there may be a prize in it!
“Rainbow Paradiso is a fantastic night out that encapsulates the spirit of Frome Festival with diversity and the local community at its heart.”
