Your host, the “comedically sassy, sequin-covered delight” (Glam Adelaide) and co-Artistic Director at large Victoria Falconer, knows how to throw a party. She’s curated a line-up of unbridled talent, glittering silliness, and jaw-dropping skill, all backed by a hot live band raring to let loose!
From Smashed: The Nightcap at Sydney Festival (2024) to The Parlour at Adelaide Cabaret Festival (2025) and a decade of late-night shenanigans across London and Edinburgh Fringe, Victoria is finally bringing the mayhem of her infamous variety shows home to the Hayes – you don’t want to miss this one!
★★★★★ “Falconer’s repertoire as host is exemplary. Her humour and commentary are insightful and deliciously hilarious. Her ad-libbing never misses a beat.” – Broadway World, on Smashed: The Nightcap
★★★★★ “Connection with the audience in any cabaret is key. Victoria Falconer lured us into her den of bawdy excellence with an instant warm rapport.” – Sydney Arts Guide, on Smashed: The Nightcap
★★★★★ “Victoria Falconer is no ordinary host! She sings, plays multiple instruments, leads the band and controls the show with a bold, defiant hand, deftly reeling the audience … Keeping her glass full and the audience eating out of her hand, teasing gently, roasting sassily, flirting audaciously.” – Stage Whispers
