London, United Kingdom, July 06, 2013 --(PR.com)-- What does it take to be a cabaret artiste?

The Singers’ Cabaret Workshop develops singers’ cabaret skills.

Campaigns for cabaret to be recognised as a genre began in 2006, spearheaded by artists Paul L Martin, Sarah-Louise Young, Dusty Limits and Time Out journalists Simone Baird and Ben Walters. In 2012, Frisky and Mannish led Cabariot, a movement sparked by Gary Barlow’s use of “too cabaret” as a derogatory comment on the X Factor.

So what is cabaret and what are its demands on the performer?
