RED

Seaton Delaval Arts Centre 

Friday 18 September 2026 

International cabaret siren Amber Topaz brings a brand new, classy, sassy, fabulous musical revue that celebrates redheaded musical theatre stars of stage and screen. ‘RED’ is the ultimate celebration of the most iconic sirens of theatre, from the golden era of Hollywood and Broadway via the West End with a touch of Vegas. Amber embodies flame haired trailblazers such as Rita Hayworth, Bette Midler, Bernadette Peters, Shirley McLaine, Gwen Verdon and many more. The show is packed full of show-stopping numbers amongst lesser known gems.

Yorkshire born Amber Topaz has worked her unique magic around the globe on the cabaret and burlesque scene, headlining theatre shows nationally and internationally including ‘Showzam’ at the historic Blackpool Tower Ballroom, The Indigo O2 London and Leeds City Varieties.

As a musical theatre performer she has performed in Les Misérables at the Palace Theatre in London. She originated the role of Maggie/Miss Nightingale in Miss Nightingale the Musical, Leicester Square Theatre and No1 national tour, and originated the role of Virgina Otis opposite Ron Moody in the No1 national tour of The Canterville Ghost. Amber has created a number of solo shows which toured many festivals including Edinburgh Fringe, Fringe World Australia, Aukland and New Zealand Fringe.

This show won her 'Best Cabaret' at the United Solo Festival New York 2018, where she was invited back as one of the 'Best of the Best' at the 10 year anniversary of the festival in 2019. Director and Choreographer Nikki Woollaston was delighted to join Amber in creating RED and in fact worked with one of the redheads celebrated in the show - Bernadette Peters recently, where she was associate director on Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends in London’s Westend and Broadway. Nikki is the current resident director worldwide arena tour of Les Misérables.
