THE BLUE HOURS
Hosted by Barb Jungr

Acclaimed cabarettist Barb Jungr, winner of New York's prestigious Backstage 2003 International Artist of the Year award for cabaret, hosted a new monthly night at New Greenham Arts. Inspired by her successful Café Prague night in Brighton, Barb introduces guests who'll entertain with a wide mix of European cabaret muusic.

May's Blue Hours featured singer / songwriter Philip Jeays. Philip has been described as a very English and intense version of Jacques Brel and his songs are catchy, toe-tapping, humerous and sad in equal measures. With scant regard for the current pop idol culture, Philip passed comment on love, death and war, and sometimes friends more successful than him!

“A true showman - all fluttering eyelashes and salacious wickedness - with the ability to swing from sarcasm to aching romanticism in the space of a heartbeat.”
