REALLY NICE DAY: The Kooky Cabaret Debut of Miss Kitty Day

You know the saying, right? Silence is golden – but duct tape is silver…

Those on Facebook know that it pays to be friends with Miss Kitty Day.   She’s a lovely girl. She may be a little unhinged of course, but that’s probably because her dream man has disappeared.   

You see, all she really wants is for someone to sympathize with her, and then tell her where the bastard is.

Being a resourceful girl, since she needed a friend, she went out and got herself one. He’ll be there for her upcoming cabaret show, tied to the piano, and doing his best to – er – play along…

Really Nice Day is the cabaret kidnap creation of Melbourne artist Christine Moffat who is also a graduate of the Melbourne Solo Cabaret Course, and includes original songs plus some famous covers performed like cabaret has never heard them before.

Music man extraordinaire Trevor Jones is rumoured to be playing – we tried to get an interview with him, but apparently he’s all tied up at the moment…

You can follow Kitty’s hilarious status updates by becoming her friend on Facebook, and she tells us in our exclusive interview that she’s really looking forward to seeing you at her show next week because she just loves a captive audience.

Really Nice Day starring Miss Kitty Day opens at The Butterfly Club next week.
