“Victoria’s Secret is out: Vaudeville has the capital's hottest pack of young actors” -Vancouver Sun

“Can it be that Atomic Vaudeville is poised to become the next big buzz in Canadian theatre?”
–Victoria Times-Colonist

“Marinates in a real and bitter flavour… More please.” –The Globe and Mail

Atomic Vaudeville after 3 years, is bringing its hit cult cabaret to Vancouver as part of Here Be Monsters company’s The Carnival of the Arts.

Atomic Vaudeville, a Victoria company led by director Britt Small and playwright Jacob Richmond has produced over 30 cabaret episodes winning them the Monday Magazine Award for best comedy act three years running. They have worked with more than 150 local and visiting artists and plan to increase that number when they come to Vancouver as they will be inviting a handful of Vancouver actors to be a part of the show. Atomic Vaudeville may be known to Vancouver audiences through their productions of The Qualities of Zero which played Vancouver in the fall of 2006 and Legoland which won the Georgia Straight Critic’s Choice award at the 2006 Vancouver Fringe Festival. Legoland will also be presented at this year’s TREMORS festival.

The company is composed of a collective of writers, performers and musicians supported by Richmond and Small. The company's mission is to redefine performance in their community by creating a living theatre environment combining a variety of performance disciplines as well as stimulating dialogue with the audience.

It is Vaudeville re-conceived for the present age, embracing the concerns and sensibilities of an undefined generation; attempting to reach out to an audience that is ready for a live, entertaining and relevant theatrical art form.
