Gingzilla is part of Bernie Dieter’s travelling family of misfits, miscreants and fantastic freaks.

THE Spiegeltent is an exciting pop-up entertainment attraction over summer in Barwon Heads that includes live music, circus cabaret and evening cabaret shows, including Bernie Dieter’s Little Death Club.

Enjoy a hazy night of dangerously funny kabarett, breathtaking circus and fire-breathing sideshow at its most inappropriate, provocative and hilarious best.

Join über-award-winning mistress of mayhem, Bernie Dieter (star of La Clique) and her travelling family of misfits, miscreants and fantastic freaks for an unmissable night in the Spiegeltent.

After a smash-hit, record-breaking season at Edinburgh Fringe 2018, a sell-out Melbourne season and winning a ‘Pick of the Fringe’ award in Adelaide, Little Death Club promises to be the hottest ticket in town this summer.

The show’s soundtrack is performed by Bernie Dieter and with her riotous, witty, and hilariously degenerate original songs.

Walking into the Little Death Club is a bit like walking into a Twin Peaks dive bar: the black and white chevron floor on the stage, the red lights, the thick haze.

There’s a drag queen draped across the bar, a morose mime drowns his sorrows in a bottle of red and a bearded lady dances in the shadows as you are greeted by the hostess herself, Bernie Dieter.

There is sexual tension and excitement in the air, a Tarantino-like Weimar punk soundtrack pulses as Bernie sips her gin, smokes a cigarette and surveys her club and her prey.

A cross between Lady Gaga, Marlene Dietrich and Noel Fielding in sequins, Bernie Dieter has stunned, aroused and terrified audiences from Berlin to Hong Kong with her gin-soaked lascivious charm.

Blending dangerously funny original songs, sequins and satire with a cut-throat wit, and a deviant eye for debaucherous mayhem.

The Spiegeltent is at Barwon Heads until January 28. For more information, visit wonderlandspiegeltent.com.au/barwon_heads.
