Imagine a decadent, smoky cabaret bar in Berlin, with a leering MC and a spot lit stage as Ute Lemper walks up to the microphone and brings the house down with an astonishingly varied set. We get Brecht and Weill cabaret classics, surreal whimsy from Neil Hannon, noir detective tales from Nick Cave, and New York minimalist opera from Phillip Glass, as well as songs from Elvis Costello, Tom Waits and Scott Walker. This was a real treat on a gloomy Monday!
