All That Bex is back with a third instalment of the most fantabulous cabaret event of recent times, Extravaganza " this time, with Fringe Benefits! Hosted by the sensational Stella Pint and featuring local NHS hero and glitzy glamourpuss, Sister Brandy Bex, Extravaganza 3 offers incredible performances from the world of comedy, burlesque, and drag. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, a phenomenal line-up, and a healthy dose of sexual confusion! "The most fantabulous cabaret event of recent times!" (Mr Gonzales, Bed 8)"Brandy's footwear is totally inappropriate but she always turns up for her shift." (Mary, Matron)This show and other All That Bex productions during Brighton Fringe 2023, will partially be in aid of Nurse Lifeline (Registered Charity no. 1190239) - supporting the mental and emotional well-being of nurses in the UK. As a nurse who has experienced work-related mental health issues, and given the lack of mental health support available, I can't emphasise enough how important it is to support such a wonderful charity. During Brighton Fringe 2023, 10% of the profits from ticket sales at All That Bex productions will be donated to Nurse Lifeline. Additionally, between 5th May - 4th June 2023, the sale of selected items on the All That Bex website will see 100% of the profits going to this amazing charity. See www.allthatbex.com for further details during Brighton Fringe 2023.A review of Extravaganza 2 " Glamourpuss! can be found at the following link.https://withoutthefear.com/2022/11/13/glamourpuss/

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
