Hersh Dagmarr
Minogueus Sanctus
Hersh Dagmarr sings Kylie Minogue
Hersh Dagmarr, the singing spectre from the Weimar Berlin catacombs, presents his new, highly anticipated show. Centred around the iconic pop princess’s repertoire, it explores the very concept of pop royalty and the gay icon, exploring the idea of ‘fandom’ with a religious sub text.
Expect a night of familiar refrains from La Minogue with a Weimar twist and frankly theatrical delivery from La Dagmarr and his piano/arranger Karen Newby.

Indefinite Leave to Remain
INDEFINITE LEAVE TO REMAIN is a love letter to London from the heart of eternal nomad ghost Hersh Dagmarr as he and his pianist (and arranger extraordinaire) Karen Newby deconstruct the songs of The Pet Shop Boys and transport them to the Weimar era.
I Love the Nightlife
I LOVE THE NIGHTLIFE is a nocturnal themed celebration of the American Songbook with classics by Cole Porter, Gershwin, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Kurt Weill, Steven Sondheim and a few surprises.
Expect a starry night of jazz age tales, elegant exhilaration and Art-deco thrills!
Glitz, sequins and sparkling dress encouraged!
Vamps of Weimar
VAMPS OF WEIMAR brings a night of classic songs in the style of Weimar-Berlin kabarett and a musical celebration of the femme (and homme) fatale archetype as depicted in popular kultur.
With songs from Kurt Weill, Edith Piaf, Frederich Hollaender, Marlene Dietrich, and…Britney Spears!
I would like to give a big shout out to my amazing collaborator Karen Newby. She is my acolyte pianist accompanier on Dagmarr’s Kabarett and definitely one of the most dedicated, keen, hard-working, experienced and talented people I ever got the chance to work with. Her work ethic knows no bounds. I am eternally grateful for her keenness, work force and energy! She definitely has the 4 golden Ps : Always super pro, positive, punctual and prepared. Every kabarett singer deserves a Frau Newby! To more Wunderbarness to come!
Hersh Dagmarr xoxo
