The Little Love Cabaret

A cabaret night to remember as Spiltmilk Dance takes audiences through a love-struck scrapbook of true-life tales. With Fairy-tale romances, full-on obsessions, awkward break-ups and magnificent everyday acts of affection combined in a heart-warming, heart-breaking, and at times completely absurd cabaret devoted to shoving a little more love into your life. Somewhere between a sketch show, a Rom Com, and a glitter bomb, join Spiltmilk Dance and two special guest artists for an all singing, all dancing love revolution!
