The Velvet Gentleman
Various People Inc in association with the 2012 Adelaide Cabaret Festival
the odd story of Erik Satie (some of it is true)
An actor, a singer and a pianist journey into the curious world of eccentric French composer Erik Satie coaxing musings and music from his piano and paraphernalia. By turns humorous, surreal and deeply moving, the show is an affectionate tribute to one of the fathers of cabaret.
