Cabaret's beloved book club is back, and this time we've got a fresh lineup of book enthusiasts ready to dive into something delightful. Get cozy with Helen Garner's hilarious and poignant Australian classic, The Children's Bach. It's the perfect excuse to take a breather from reality and have a good laugh while contemplating life's little dramas.

Join Virginia Gay, Annabel Crabb, and writer Lur Alghurabi for some lively chatter, quirky insights, and a few giggles, all while enjoying some jazzy renditions of Bach, courtesy of the talented Michelle Nicolle. Oh, and the nostalgia doesn't stop there; we'll also throw in some prime music from the 1984 Melbourne scene. You know Crabb had to get the skinny from Garner about those live gigs the book's characters might have hit up. So, dust off your copy, or better yet, borrow one if you can, and join us for a lazy Sunday afternoon with your new best mates.
