With a former prime minister censured, and a current one emerging from the honeymoon period, satirical cabaret duo Shortis and Simpson are back at Cobargo with a whole new batch of razor-sharp songs. As the government slays the inflation dragon, grapples with climate targets, plays with acronyms like NACC and IR, the opposition gives us secret portfolios, a new-look Peter Dutton, and turns down the volume on The Indigenous Voice to Parliament. John Shortis’ witty songwriting and Moya Simpson’s vocal and comic flair combine to tear it all down in hilarious and poignant style in Cabaret Politico.
