Kiki and Herb
T01521913816
Kiki and Herb are the creation of American 'cabaret terrorists', Justin Bond and Kenny Mellman, respectively. Since 1993, they have been presenting
Kiki and Herb shows to standing room only crowds internationally. In no way a conventional drag act,
Kiki and Herb offer audiences their own special brand of hard-hitting, gritty character comedy. Kiki is a washed up, boozed up chanteuse whose middle age passed her by some time ago. Herb, her piano-battering, lifelong accompanist provides musical underscoring to her rants and raves. At any given moment the duo are likely to twist and warp a tune until Kiki is screaming the lyrics and Herb is pounding the piano keys with a vengeance. Interspersed with the songs are Kiki's hilarious and often tragic monologues about her life, her career and anything else that happens to be on her mind.

Happy Accidents
Kiki is a drunken torch song singer at the end of her tether. Show business has destroyed her, but she cannot live without it. Aided by her blissfully subservient yet explosive accompanist, Herb, Kiki regales the audience with her life story and a series of unimaginable yet inspired re-inventions of songs from artists as diverse as Nirvana, Kate Bush, Radiohead and Annie Lennox.
