DEEP. FUNNY. PIANO. GAY.

The crown prince of Sydney cabaret, Brendan Maclean, returns to the stage and to reality with an ode to humility, rage, forgiveness and the limp wrist. Performing his first original compositions in seven years, Maclean finally plays his cards, unfurling hard truths of unrealised fame, lives lost and compromised integrity. Inviting you to personally influence and alter the show, Brendan throws himself at the mercy of chance, artistic provocation and real time critique from both his closest friends and strangers in this earnest theatrical accompaniment to his upcoming third album.
