Description The Colenso BBDO Season of Cantina. Leave your everyday life behind and visit the Festival Club. Discover a 1930s underground cantina-cabaret where girls in stilettos and bare-chested guys gaze at each other through a cloudy haze of charm and depravity. Dripping with vaudeville, acts of unbelievable daring, the shabby-chic of speakeasies, Cantina delivers its audience some truly 'skilled-up and deliciously twisted entertainment' (The Guardian). Six characters, each with a freakish talent to take their bodies to the limit, test the fine line between pleasure and pain, timidity and brashness.
