Margarita Pracatan at Manchester Pride

Margarita Pracatan at Manchester Pride

Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 August 2012, venue TBC

With her thick accent and slippery grasp of the English language, campy Cuban chanteuse Margarita Pracatan has been wowing audiences for decades with her devastating renditions of Broadway standards and pop favourites by the likes of ABBA, Boy George, and Britney Spears.

Now, the one-of-a-kind music and comedy diva premieres her show, Stranger in the Night, which is currently playing on Broadway. An all-new evening of song, stories and unconventional wisdom --- featuring mind-blowing and innovative interpretations of hits by Katy Perry, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, and Maroon 5!

Armed with her portable electronic Yamaha keyboard and a Powerpoint presentation she prepared at the public library, she’s on a mission to change your life one pop song at a time -- even if she seldom finds the right key, lands on the right note, or sings the proper lyrics!

A rare chance to see the UK premiere of this cabaret show, which opened in New York to a sellout audience.

Written by Margarita Pracatan, Maria Gorshin, and Zach Udko and conceived, Directed by Zach Udko and presented by Manchester Pride.

Tickets £10 (£8) Tickets will be available shortly...
