Short+Sweet Cabaret Gala Finals 2016

Short+Sweet Cabaret features inspiring 10-minute performances and showcasing the full range of cabaret - including dance, musical theatre, burlesque, even magic and comedy! 

Short+Sweet Cabaret is a sparkling jewel to the Short+Sweet crown featuring inspiring 10-minute performances, showcasing the full range of cabaret, including dance, musical theatre, and burlesque! 

Merging theatre and music cabaret creates an atmosphere of exploration, energy, politics, stories, characters, burlesque, songs, and silliness. Short+Sweet Cabaret is a forum where new ideas are tested, risks are taken, where the performers and audience share and intimate experience of something new, and never seen before. 

After presenting over 30 short works, and much deliberating of judges and audiences, the season culminates into a spectacular Gala Final – showcasing the best of the best. 

Join us at Slide to see the full display of Cabaret performance from dance to magic, pole to parody, all in one spectacular show!

Tech Requirements Form Townsville

This form is to help us coordinate resources so that we can best support the requirements of your work. Please answer all of the questions to the best of your knowledge BEFORE your production meeting. We will then discuss anything that needs more detail as a part of the meeting.

Please write a brief description of your required lighting states. You do not need to know specifics - it is often a good idea to describe the mood or effect you're trying to achieve, rather than describing what lights should be used.
Please write a brief description of the music and/or sound effects that you will be providing for use in your production.
Please list any items of furniture you intend to use. Please also note whether you will be providing the item or whether it is a request for us to supply (some shared pieces may be available, depending on requests).
Please list all major props you will be using.
Please briefly describe what happens on stage during your performance. In particular, please note any activity that may incur risks or special attention.
Is there anything else we should know about? For example, use of AV projection (only available in some venues), audience participation, likelihood of a big mess... etc.
