    This August 8th at OBERON, Axe To Ice Productions and the cast of Bent Wit Cabaret explore whodunit in their most enigmatic show yet! Hosted by the outrageous UnAmerika’s Sweetheart Karin Webb and the legendary 86-years-young Mary Dolan, and featuring a Deemed “provocative and waaayyyy ‘outside the box’ cabaret/burlesque… achieving kind of a growing ‘cult status’ amongst a Boston audience interested in something unique and challenging.” by The Boston Survival Guide, Bent Wit Cabaret is a monthly “high-end, low-brow variety show” with a different theme for each show and a brilliant core cast of collaborating performers and musicians.

    Previous explorations have included Grotesque and Fantasy, and now with Mystery, a night of murder and mayhem rocks the very foundation this show stands on:

    Who's been killed?

    Why?

    And where are my pants?

    BWC: Mystery features brilliant spoken word artist Jha D., magic by Dezrah The Strange, burlesque performance artist Penny Candy and a most original piece- The System of Soothing, a 7 minute opera by Frank Pesci based on a story by Edgar Allen Poe. These guests will join Bent Wit’s core performers Sugar Dish, Lainey SchoolTree, Femme Brulee, as well as the Bent Wit House Band, Elephant Tango Ensemble (featuring members of Goli and HUMANWINE).  

    Bawdy, beautiful, delicious and disastrous, Bent Wit audiences should always come expecting the unexpected! You're welcome, Boston.

          Avant-Garde Variety Show loosely based on a murder mystery theme. More variety show than murder mystery. High points are the magician, a heartfelt reading of liberal/lesbian poetry, and a... Expand
