"Some Like It Hot" Cabaret by Rebecca Grant turns up the heat in Mayfair



Holby City and Prisoners Wives actress was described as "witty" and "dazzling" by the Daily Mail and caused near 'uproar' from her cabaret show "Some Like it Hot" at Bellamy's, Mayfair. Owner Gavin Rankin teamed up with West End conductor and pianist Tom Wakeley to cook up a plan to spice up the month of August. Rebecca Grant came up with the torchy image and repertoire of songs fulfilling Gavin's expectations which was to create a night of naughty songs for bad girls. cont. below

Bellamy's is one of two places in London HRH The Queen has dined at so needless to say Rebecca's audience, in which she intimately had to perform to, consisted of Lords, Ladies, bank and business owners as well as the Queen's personal pianist Confrey Phillips. However, after each cabaret she gained full praise, participation and standing ovations, the audience would not leave their seats and insisted on joining in singing more familiar songs. Rebecca says "This feels like the true essence of cabaret how it was where the audience want to get involved and basically sing, dance and play the piano the whole night through!"
