THE Rouge Diamond Cabaret Club is back with a bang in January 2023 for an exhilarating showcase of singing, dancing and comedy.

Season one’s sell-out performances in 2021 demanded an encore and the Naidu Theatre Company have pulled out all the stops to recreate the magic for season two.

“The singing and dancing is amazing, this show has something for everyone, fire twirling, poles, professional dancers and lots of comedy,” said Jade Naidu, Director of Naidu Theatre Company.

“We decided to do a second season as the first production sold out so quickly, it sold out before we even opened.

“After the first season, the cast walked away feeling inspired and kept asking to do it again.

“That energy and passion resonates through the show.

“We started rehearsals a couple of weeks ago but the cast have spent the last eighteen months working on new ideas and concepts to take the show to the next level.”

The Naidu Theatre Company have a knack of surprising and wowing the crowd which Jade attributes to the hours spent in the creative process.

“Creating original content is a key part of bringing the show to life; it makes the show unpredictable and an immersive experience for the audience,” she said.

“The creative input from our diverse cast is a key ingredient to the production.

“Every week new comedy scenes, jokes and skits are developed so the end product has evolved from hundreds of hours in the creative process.

“There’s incredible chemistry amongst the cast, there’s a culture where all of the actors are aligned and everyone plays such an important role.

“It doesn’t matter if you are a principal character, ensemble, cleaning or catering, everyone just comes together like a family to deliver the best show possible.

“Coffs Coast audiences are hungry for original works of self-expression, comedy and storytelling that is relatable to adults.”

Whilst cabaret shows tend to be exclusive to big cities, the Naidu Theatre Company continues to push the envelope by bringing a little bit of Broadway magic to the North Coast.

“Every time we put on a show, our mission is to win the hearts of the audience,” said Jade.

“Normally you have to travel to Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne or even London or New York to see a show like this, but we have professional artists on the North Coast.

“We’ve definitely got the talent on the North Coast to take on a Broadway style show and deliver something different for the locals and visitors.

“There’s something for everyone in Rouge Diamond, a range of music including pop, RnB and 80s performed by local talent and guest artists to give the best of everything.

“The themes and jokes are specifically written for an adult audience, it’s an over eighteen’s only show and we have a licensed drinks bar, so it’s a great opportunity to sip a cocktail, kick back and enjoy the show.

“Over the next two months we will cultivate a show that will shock, rock and make you laugh out loud.

“Tickets are available online at www.naidutheatrecompany.com and with Christmas around the corner they would make a great gift,” concluded Jade.
