s u m m e r g u i d e 2 0 1 7 7 5 Portland after dark damon loucks C a ba r e t Night is a Add a soupçon of naughty to your evening with Portland’s premier cabaret troupe. By Olivia Gunn Interested in something a little different? Dare to feel a little uneasy? OK, Portland. Let’s do this: “Willkom- men! Bienvenue! Welcome! Im cabaret. Au cabaret. To cabaret!” The Forest City’s irrepressible new Voulez-Vous Bur- lesque troupe is doing for Maine what Le Chat Noir did for Par- is in 1882 and Christopher Isherwood’s fictional Kit Kat Club did for 1930s Berlin. Geno’s Rock Club isn’t my typical Friday haunt, but after a week of nine-to- five routines, I need to add a little more spark to my night. Like Sally Bowles, I’m craving the “strange and extraordinary.” The evening’s entertainment, presented by Voulez-Vous Burlesque, is playfully en- titled The I F*cking Love Food Show. With a name “It’s clear to me I must meet the woman behind the pasties.”
