Theatre
FATAL FLOWER, an ode to the hysterical woman. In this tragicomic musical and over-the-top one-woman show, Valentina explores the boundaries and clichés of the female image in society. With a mix of opera, theatre, musical, cabaret, classical music and comedy, she introduces various hysterical women, including the Queen of the Night, a vengeful bride-to-be, and a strict Russian piano teacher (or is that her mother?), all leading to Valentina herself. Armed with remarkable musicality, humour, social criticism and larger-than-life characters, Fatal Flower keeps the audience on edge, evoking either sympathy or bewilderment – either way, it's a triumph.
