Jean Brigitte & The Pretentious Kants/I'm a Woman /VIP Show+Afterparty

ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE

After a spectacular sold-out show in 2023 at a secret location for over 550 spectators, Stavangeren and THE PRETENTIOUS KANTS are proud to present a new, exhilarating world of musical theatre.

I'M A WOMAN is a jazz cabaret production featuring a 15-piece big band, led by Australia's cabaret queen, JEAN BRIGITTE. I'M A WOMAN is about not having to conform. It's about being yourself; being brave, being strong, not being afraid of your own sensuality or individuality... and being unapologetic in your feminine power.

It's a man's world, lovers. But it wouldn't be nothing without a woman or a girl.

But what would the world be without women and girls? I'M A WOMAN features arrangements of songs by Shirley Bassey, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Julie London, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Melody Gardot, Nina Simone, and Eartha Kitt. Imagine you are in a theater in New York in the 1940s. Imagine you are in Las Vegas back in the day. Imagine you are at the Moulin Rouge when it all began.
