This week, Emmett Davenport and Lady Attercop wander the low road, tracing loneliness, bad decisions, and the thin line between comfort and ruin through songs about medicine, devils, cowboys, and charming men. From old-fashioned remedies and darker histories to swagger, sorrow, and strange humor, the Cabaret leans into music that aches, struts, and refuses easy answers. It's a beautiful night for questionable cures and excellent company.

WARNING! This show is for adults. We drink cocktails, have potty mouths and, at least, one of us was raised by wolves.

The Clockwork Cabaret is a production of Agony Aunt Studios. Featuring that darling DJ Duo, Lady Attercop and Emmett Davenport. Our theme music is made especially for us by Kyle O'Door.
