Passionate performance for Valentine's night
Wednesday February 10 2010
FOR a Valentine's celebration with a bit of class, you couldn't do much better than spend an evening with chanteuse, Karen Egan at Siamsa Tíre when she brings her Valentine Cabaret Special, La Charlatanne to Tralee on Sunday February 14.
This chic diva presents a show filled with bold, brassy rhythm and attitude and plenty of comic timing. Mixing a cocktail of Cohen, Brel and Waits with her own original hits, La Egan offers an evening of charismatic characters.
Supported by a four piece band, this is a show that will delight in its contradictions - sexy burlesque, wonderful music and unmissable magic.
Many of you will probably know Karen Egan from her time with the comedy singing trio, 'The Nualas'.
However, she has more recently built up a stellar reputation for her live cabaret shows. This recent solo foray into the world of cabaret has given her an ideal platform to showcase her talents as multilingual chanteuse, comedienne and song-writer.
She has built up a cult following in Ireland, Finland and Scotland with five star sellout shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2006.
Tickets are €20 or €18 concession. Contact Siamsa Tíre's Box Office on 066-7123055 for bookings and further information. Check Karen Egan out on www.myspace.com/kare negan
