VIVA la DIVA: JACQUI DARK

“When you write a song, most of the words you use are in black and white, and then, from time to time, you use one that's in colour. ...” After sellout seasons of her cabaret Take This Longing at Claire’s Kitchen and Darlinghurst Theatre, one of Australia’s finest interpreters of song returns, accompanied by award-winning musical director Daryl Wallis on piano, to ride the carousel of emotions from the master of chanson, Jacques Brel. Brel dwelt fearlessly on love, death and desperation. His intelligent and passionate songs of heartbreak, passion and amour conquer the head and the heart with their uncompromising and often sardonic observations of the human spirit. It could not be more apt that this show will premiere amongst the exquisite French cuisine and ambience of Claire’s Kitchen at Le Salon. Vive la France!
