» Reviews: Brighton Festival Fringe – Cabaret Whore

Sarah-Louise Young is as impressive this year as she was last, when she scooped up awards galore and captivated so many new fans. This character comedienne chanteuse is talented on numerous fronts, and yet without vanity as she skips through her flawed characters, poking vicious fun at them and adopting whole new stances and physicalities as she picks up a new deluded and semi-tortured soul. She really is very funny. Opening with Liza-alike Berne Sinclair she belts out the highly entertaining and knowing ‘Diva Of A Certain Age’. Her second character is Kasha, an Eastern European performance artiste who successfully sends up Bjork and her ilk, followed by Sister Carol Anne and her Ministry of Cabaret, and closing with last year’s favourite ‘The Frumpy Pigeon’ – the French psychotic chanteuse dressed in black. All different, all highly entertaining, and all so much fun throughout.

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk

» Artists Open Houses

AOH Special: It’s Festival time in Brighton & Hove, which means the Artists Open Houses have opened their doors for another year! Maps of all the trails can be picked up across the city.

We have 11 special programmes, featuring artists in their own houses. So here’s your chance to go ‘through the keyhole’ so to speak as we visit the artists in their own environment.
