Greek tragedy with a jazz cocktail twist hits Brighton Fringe.
Laced with jazz standards and cocktails, this retelling of the Greek Phaedra tragedy creates a sultry tapestry of love’s eternal struggle with passion, addiction, choice and fate.
Award-winning LynchPin Productions Theatre Company returns to Brighton Fringe with You Give Me Fever – the Phaedra Cabaret. It’s a classic story backed up by classy jazz standards including Mad About the Boy, Bewitched, Fever and an array of tasty cocktails. Tragedy with a twist…
Written by Jack Lynch (Emily Dickinson & I; Cloning Mary Shelley; Consider This…) with West End actress Pippa Winslow (The Phantom of the Opera; Hairspray; Sister Act; The Sound of Music) as our heroine Fey, and the brilliant fingerstyle jazz guitarist James Shannon.
Writer/director Jack Lynch, said: “This show is a truly eclectic mix of styles that is bound to bewitch audiences, whether you’re drawn because of the subject or because you love jazz. Pippa Winslow interprets these songs and the story with pathos and sexy, tipsy humour, and James Shannon skillfully sets the tone with his accomplished musicianship.”
