Babel Beast
After 3 theatre festivals in London, Babel Beast lands in Brighton Fringe!
Babel Beast is an experimental cabaret made by and for mythical creatures of Ancient Greece, through which Sofia Natoli explores her multiculturalism and lived experiences of (un)belonging in between cultural spaces – herself divided between Italy, France and the UK.
This interdisciplinary array of cabaret acts – featuring burlesque, stand-up, lip sync and more – both spotlights the tragedies of Ancient monstresses and reveals what it means to be a hybrid woman today, shape-shifting between cultures.
Whether repurposing pop culture, childhood nostalgia or mythic storytelling, Babel Beast is “everything you could want from a cabaret” (London Pub Theatres). This captivating one-woman spectacle is familiar yet fresh, energizing yet intimate, and fundamentally “a love letter to speaking many languages” (audience response).
If you are a cabaret lover, a Greek myth fanatic, or someone who’s ever felt like an in-between, then this show is for you! You are invited for a night of frightening and seductive, strange and reflective encounters – and the Sphynx is waiting for you…
“If you get the chance to take in this show then you should thank the Gods!” ★★★★ London Pub Theatres
