Description A cabaret style performance where youthful memories are seamlessly interwoven with a beautiful array of songs from composers such as The Pixies, Rufus Wainwright, Elvis Costello and The Tiger Lillies. And with dresses and stories going hand in hand - the dress from her wedding and the dress she was wearing when she kissed a boy, and then there was the one she wore to her uncle's funeral - Susan continually tempts the audience with a visual multitude of gorgeous red dresses, sewn into one piece and hanging from above, to create a new 'Red Dress'.
