Profile Bio
Paulus The Cabaret Geek is an entertainer and educator who began their public speaking journey a decade ago, working with the Women's Insitute. Since then, he has given talks to Rotary Clubs, U3A, Townswomen's Guild and many after-dinner events.
Specialising in musical comedy, with a great interest in the history of theatre and cabaret, Paulus brings 30 years experience as a cabaret artiste to his speaking engagements, making them quirky, memorable and fizzing with irreverance.
In 2023, Paulus began sharing the story of how he created a celebration of the music of the late, great Victoria Wood - and asks whether she was, in fact, the last of our great Music Hall artistes.
Talk Description
Victoria Wood: The Last Great Variety Entertainer?
Paulus watched Victoria Wood on television with his Mum from the age of ten. Now he has created a show celebrating her musical genius. Includes Victoria Wood songs played on Paulus’ trusty ukulele,
Mabel. He also asks; was she, in fact, the last of the UK’s great variety entertainers?
