The Ruby Dolls Are Alive

The Ruby Dolls Are Alive: Just about. They’ve been away for a while. They’re juggling it all – the big and the banal – and now they’re back. As the world continues to get ever messier, they have plenty to say about it and say it in gorgeous four-part harmony. They will!

Accompanied by Benjamin Cox (Operation Mincemeat) on piano, this cabaret weaves the story of a shocking murder from the 1940s through an eclectic mix of music.

The Ruby Dolls switch from medieval hymn to Britney Spears, 16th-century folk to Mary Poppins, with a sprinkling of Noel Coward and a dash of Beyoncé.

Expect poetry, dodgy accents and forest-core fashion.

So what are you waiting for? Take a break from your phone and come and sit in the dark with The Dolls.
