P&O Cruises Australia today announced it is partnering with internationally acclaimed Australian director – Scott Maidment of Strut & Fret, to bring a brand new adults only show to the sea, “Blanc de Blanc – Uncorked”. The new risqué, Parisian-inspired show premieres this Saturday, 20 August coinciding with the first guest cruise for P&O’s Pacific Encounter, and will also be a program fixture on Pacific Adventure when she commences sailing in October.
An adaptation of the intentionally acclaimed and equally sassy “Blanc de Blanc”, P&O’s exclusive Uncorked version takes Strut & Fret’s renowned high production, creative set design and stunning costumes to a new level in P&O’s Black Circus theatres. The six member cast will dazzle, surprise and entertain guests with their showcase of world class cabaret and acrobatic performances.
Counting down to the onboard premiere, P&O Cruises Australia’s Head of Entertainment, Brett Annable, said this was a momentous occasion for the cruise line.
“The past two years have been challenging for both the cruise and entertainment industries and we are absolutely thrilled to be back cruising again, and to have the opportunity to partner again with Scott to bring this high-energy show to our guests.
“Anyone who has sailed with us before will be familiar with Scott’s incredible work with fan-favourite shows including Love Riot and Purple Rabbit. With Blanc de Blanc – Uncorked, Scott again delivers a stunning production with plenty of cheek, so bring your sense of humour and a glass of bubbles to the show for a special night out.”
Director and founder of Strut & Fret, Scott Maidment, said Blanc de Blanc has enthralled guests around the world with glitz, glamour and showmanship.
“Blanc de Blanc – Uncorked is centred around my fascination with vintage French culture and Moulin Rouge. It is outrageous, fun and demonstrates the unbelievable skill of our all-new cast joining us from across the globe, including Australia, New Zealand, the US and the Ukraine and we can’t wait to bring this to P&O guests for an experience they’ll never forget, ” said Maidment.
