"Impossible to Resist".. "Don't Miss this Loopy Show!"
- Pat Donnely Montreal Gazette
"Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. These twelve performers in the Cabaret L'Amour Fou were hilarious and their spot on performances were truly entertaining. Combining dance, song and comedy this ensemble had the house roaring with laughter and wishing that the performance would never end.
"It was high seas adventure that set sail deep into the heart of love. The antics of cast were over the top and as joyous and maddening as love itself."
- MJ Stone for the Montreal Hour
"Drop acid and spend the evening shinning flashlights on the ceiling while watching your favourite new, or old-school pirate movies. Now play an old blues record and put on episodes of Jim Henson's The Muppet Show. All this and you'll come close to the experience I had while I was in attendance for this show."

Mind of a Snail Puppet Co.
Casting anchor down on weathered docks,
the Ancient Rugged Revival arrives
Is it a band, or is it a play?
Is it a vaudville act or a didactic fable?
A barrage of sailor’s songs,
tap dancing,
shadow puppetry,
erotic mumblings,
gale storms and mutiny
CABARET L'AMOUR FOU!
In one of the largest productions to crash your neighbourhood this year, CABARET L’AMOUR FOU! offers up a 12-person spectacle of genre-bending collaboration by East Vancouver’s Ancient Rugged Revival.
Watch for the raucous troupe of shifty sailors, seductive lovers, poetic pirates and scraggly old-world ragamuffins, always bound to be making a scene both on and off-stage.
Come,
we invite you
to feast on this rousing and rickety musical journey
'twill surely wrench your heart, one way or another..
