Glass Half Empty Cabaret

In a society where winners are grinners and losers can please themselves, how can a born cynic find their place in the world?

They go into showbiz.

Drawn from her dodgy acting career touring outback towns via many a school hall, Cloudia and the Silver Linings present a selection of toe-tapping tunes and hanky-wringing ballads that celebrate human foibles and shed a light on the not-so-bright side of life.

With a grim optimism in the face of doom, actor/songwriter Linda Stainton and her band of three demonstrate that while a positive attitude might win you friends and influence, true lasting joy comes from expecting the worst.

Because what can be more deeply satisfying than being able to say, ‘I told you so?’
