THE BLUE HOURS SPECIAL - BEAUTIFUL LIFE
Barb Jungr

Acclaimed cabarettist Barb Jungr, winner of New York's prestigious Backstage 2003 International Artist of the Year award for cabaret, hosts a 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.

This month Barb Jungr premiered her new show, featuring blues and gospel - her greatest musical and vocal passions. Barb delved deep to discover what the songs say about us and what they reveal about the world today. Including clasics such as Curtis Mayfield's ‘People Get Ready’, Leadbelly and Dylan's ‘Brady and Duncan’ and Dylan's ‘Blind Wille McTell’. Barb proved that she remains “Britain's leading chansonnier” (The Times). Supported by New Greenham Arts' Cultivating Ideas programme.

“Jungr is obviously a star. Her linking chat, which verges on stand-up, is disconcertingly honest, local and funny”
