The Famous Spiegeltent
In February we were lucky enough to see "The Freak and the Showgirl", a Perth Fringe Festival offering, in the world famous Spiegeltent.
The Spiegeltent is a European Mirror Tent - the ultimate cabaret and music salon.
Historically the tents were hand-sewn pavilions used as traveling dance halls, bars and entertainment salons since they were created in the early 20th century. There are only a hand-full of these unique and legendary ‘tents of mirrors’ left in the world today. Built of wood, mirrors, canvas, leaded glass and detailed in velvet and brocade, each has its own personality and style.

We were fortunate to have the most beautiful of the last remaining Belgian Spiegeltents in Perth. This tent, was built in 1920 by master craftsmen Oscar Mols Dom and Loius Goor.
I hope you enjoy these snaps from the evening.
