Variety by the Exe, Exeter Summer Festival, Saturday 13th June, 7.30pm
One of the major hits of last year’s festival, is back with a bigger and better totally different night of entertainment for all.
After a roaring sell out success last year, Exeter City Council, Exeter Festival and Slightly Fat Features proudly presents Variety by the Exe.
A one-off cabaret show, for one night only, with live music, circus tricksters, top turns, an adult prodigy and most importantly lots and lots of laughs. A spectacular night out in a beautiful theatre, this incredible family show will have you on the edge of your seat no matter what your age.
Blending the weird and the wonderful with the essence of old style music hall, this overload of activity will feature unicyclists, dancers, magicians, a live painter, saw playing, Vegas virtuosos, cardboard chicanery, live cinema, singers and a possible visit from the king.
Slightly Fat Features have been busy since their success here last year, honing their unique style of variety entertainment across the country.
We are sure you won’t want to miss out on this opportunity to view the feast of features and wonderful surprises that only their live shows can bring!
