“If the end is nigh, we want Aidan in charge of the exit”

West End Best Friend

An "absolute tornado of a cabaret star", Aidan Sadler is routinely vandalising the face of cabaret. Described as the “Demonic David Bowie”, they made their staggering ascent to notoriety at Edinburgh Fringe 2021 with their debut show, Tropicana, which went on to sell out, extend and win "Best Solo Act" at The Scene Alba Awards. They have since appeared in Fringe festivals across the globe every year, repeatedly trying to recreate the magic of their first run, like an addict chasing their first high.

“From hair-raising vocals to peppering the audiences with their barbs and jokes, they single-handedly keep my faith in show business”

The Sun

Aidan appeared in their west-end residency at Flirty Dancing, which received nationwide acclaim in The Sun, TimeOut and Metro. Aidan then went on to become the spokesperson for the end of the world, creating apocalyptic synthwave cabaret, Melody. This received further sold-out houses, five-star reviews (and a feature in Forbes) and allowed them a platform to launch original music with their band, Garrisons. They have gone on to enable homosexuality internationally with their new late-night pop up club cabaret, Big Gay Afterparty. Aidan continues to tour nationally, gracing national theatres to holiday parks with their musicianship, surrealism and token suitcase full of dreams.

Sadler has the visual aesthetic of a being beamed directly to us from another planet, but also the musical chops to go with it.”
