Taking over the Sydney Opera House with an 18-piece orchestra in his flashiest, funniest and most fearless endeavour yet, Reuben Kaye is bigger and better than ever (it’s in the title). We know because he made us write it down.

The fiery, filthy and fabulous comedian and cabaret artist blends rapid-fire punchlines with full-throated torch songs in an extravagant spectacle. Kaye shares deeply personal (and hilarious) stories in between belting out diva-worthy anthems: there’s no material that’s off-limits for this sharp-tongued cabaret superstar.

A winner of multiple Best Cabaret Awards, Kaye is political, bawdy, and very queer; his voice is honey spritzed with cyanide. A full musical entourage has been enlisted for EnGORGed – including band, backing vocalists and mini orchestra – adding swelling strings and a throbbing rhythm section to his seductive vocals.
