The first time I fell in love with Mary's was one night out down the East End, stumbling into the club, taking advantage of the 'Schlong Island Ice Teas' (nice), and being in awe of the Diva's performing their hearts out on stage. Being able to see people transform themselves, to shine a light on a different part of their personality, to be able to lip-sync to their hearts content and be happy and comfortable while doing so, is something more than just a little bit special.

The Mary's Diva's (knowing they're onto something great) are Cabaret-ing the night away with their all-new, very fabulous, and beyond spectacular Adelaide Fringe show!
The performance, produced and hosted by Karen From Finance, a sweet-hearted numbers girl; guides you through life in the office for Karen and her coworkers, featuring all the facets of a good Shakespearian drama; tragedy, resilience, and a glamorous resurrection.

The 75-minute show is jam packed with a song selection every diva has programmed into her from birth. I found myself singing along to Whitney Houston songs I swore I'd never heard before, but they poured out of my heart and soul along with every other audience member there.
