LA CLIQUE, winner of the 2009 Olivier Award for BEST ENTERTAINMENT, is proud to welcome two new artists to the show; mad-cap illusionist Carl-Einar Häckner, and outrageous operatic diva Le Gateau Chocolat, from March 25th 2009
Impossible to define and impossible to resist, LA CLIQUE's ever-changing family of freaksters welcomes two new faces;
Carl-Einar Häckner
This famous, marauding Swede joins LA CLIQUE in London with his unique and shambolic brand of musical comedy and illusion. You will laugh against your better judgement at this delightful and sinfully talented comic magician. Carl-Einer is a classic Shakespearian fool, utterly clueless yet full of brilliantly executed routines. A mega-star in the land of the midnight sun, this lunatic is living proof that the Swedes have a sense of humour beyond exporting white bell-bottom jump suits and 70's pop anthems.
Le Gateau Chocolat
Le Gateau Chocolat is an opera-singing diva with a penchant for being wrapped in body-hugging lycra and a passion for laughter. This delicious confection is a killer baritone who delivers outrageous and moving renditions of pop, jazz and musical theatre numbers. Le Gateau Chocolat has performed at many prestigious venues including The Royal Opera House, London and Copenhagen Opera House. A real show-stopper, Le Gateau Chocolat has a warmth that will see the whole world addicted to chocolate.
LA CLIQUE took up residence at the The Hippodrome in Leicester Square on October 2nd, 2008. Both audiences and critics alike have fallen for its twisted charms and the extraordinary atmosphere of the venue. On 8th March 2009, LA CLIQUE was awarded the Olivier Award for Best Entertainment.
A melange of cabaret, new burlesque, circus sideshow, and contemporary variety, LA CLIQUE has assumed cult status as a seductive, dangerous, funny and above all, heart-warming sensation. The Hippodrome's many bars, lavish auditorium, incredible atmosphere and iconic history provide the perfect setting for one of the most unusual and eye-popping shows in the West End today.
