Musical mischief rocks the atmosphere at this live show and podcast. Cut loose with your host Keira Daley (LadyNerd, [title of show]) and guests, for some toe-tapping, head-bopping, rollicking variety night mayhem.

With a fresh line-up, set-list and theme for each show, every Slapdash Song Night! is unique. Enjoy hilarious originals, cool covers, fast-fire chats, and outrageously fun topics. Our motto? “Singy-sing, talky-talk, drinky-drink!” – the true spirit of cabaret!
