Also newly appointed Co-Artistic Director at the Darlinghurst Theatre Company, Amylia Harris, has devised an innovative solution to getting theatre fans back in the Eternity Playhouse. What’s on offer is a series of intimate dinner and cabaret shows for just 6 tables of 4 patrons at a time, billed as “soulful evenings of food, story and song”. You can find details for Red Carpet Cabaret including the performer lineup from the link.
