THRILL ME THE LEOPOLD AND LOEB STORY

Charged with obsession, love and compulsive urges, Stephen Dolginoff’s masterful musical Thrill Me: The Leopold and Loeb Story is finally coming to the Seymour Centre for the Mardi Gras season. With a NY Drama Desk Nomination, this Off-Broadway hit tells the story of Chicago’s Infamous Murder-some Duo during the mid 1920s. With homosexuality, imprisonment, brutality and intimacy on the table, these boys twist the world of normalcy as they attempt to commit the perfect crime.

Feb 24-Mar 6, Seymour Centre, Seymour Centre, cnr City Rd & Cleveland St, $20-30, seymour.usyd.edu.au

THE MARGARITAS – ON THE ROCKS

This hilarious Sydney girl group, who brought us 2009’s hit show Slup, Don’t Sip, are back.  Their new vocally charged show, The Margaritas – On the Rocks, will bring down the house in honour of 2010’s Mardi Gras season. This talented trio of sassy, sexy senoritas: Nathalie Cotte, Jackeline Laso and Natalie McCormack will combine the sensualities of the burlesque, cabaret and some old vocally reworked classics and faves.

Feb 25-Mar 6, Seymour Centre, cnr City Rd & Cleveland St, $18-25, seymour.usyd.edu.au
