Flamboyant performer Hersh Dagmarr will bring his unique blend of Kabarett and Chanson to London’s Crazy Coqs on Sunday, February 1, at 7:30 PM for Dagmarr’s Dimanche: Songs from the Cinema.
As the restless ghost of vintage entertainment, Hersh Dagmarr returns to Crazy Coqs alongside his regular pianist and arranger, Frau Karen Newby. This recurring Sunday rendezvous promises an enchanting evening of silver screen seduction—perfect for early Valentine’s Day indulgence.
Audiences can expect to be immersed in the smoky allure of Dietrich and the brazen wit of Mae West as Hersh conjures the golden age of Hollywood, when femmes fatales were iconic, and glamour was a full-time pursuit. The repertoire will include legendary numbers from films such as Gilda, Cabaret, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Casablanca, Laura, and more, with a touch of Marlene Dietrich that will make you nostalgic for pencilled eyebrows and indoor smoking.
Dagmarr’s Dimanche will explore the thrilling aspects of vintage Hollywood: the glitz, the romance, the powerful vocals, dramatic entrances (one for each song), torch songs, champagne, swooning, and much more.
