“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 Proud Embankment, which received nationwide acclaim in The Sun, TimeOut and Metro. Aidan then went on to throw their name in the ring as the spokesperson for the end of the world, creating apocalyptic synthwave cabaret, Melody. This received further sold-out houses, five-star reviews and allowed them a platform to launch original music with their band, Garrisons. 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.”
The SMU
Aidan Sadler has to be a fringe favourite! Their performances are energetic and unapologetically queer which is so empowering to experience. Having seen Tropicana I didn't know what to expect but this show delivered! Sadler's balance of humour, politics and ridiculously strong vocals make this show a must see!
A warm, handsome and very funny performer with a great voice and bags of charm. 100% recommended.
10/10, I knew Aidan was a must see going in (queer cabaret icon!!) and this show was as brilliant as everything they do. Aidan is effortlessly hilarious in between belting out their funny and heartfelt original — and very queer — ballads. Also if you come to this show you might get a chance at some snogging (the most immersive performance I’ve ever been to!), which really is a dream come true.
Absolutely blown away by Aidan in every respect and cannot WAIT to see them again. Just the most incredibly powerful voice, charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent.. unmatched. Also their patter in between songs is hilarious; start to finish Aidan is a star and owns every stage lucky enough to host them. And the outfits!!! Incredibly inspiring in every aspect. I cannot wait to see what Aidan does next..
Aidan sang at my 40th birthday weekend. What can I say, amazing from start to finish, his voice is incredible, could listen to him sing all night and his stage presence is fantastic!!! Thank you so much Aidan, you made my birthday very special x x x
We booked Aidan to sing as my Sister's surprise 40th. I can honestly say he made our weekend. He was just absolutely fantastic from start to finish, everyone is still talking about what an amazing night we had! Thank you Aidan, we can't praise you enough, you are so brilliant at what you do, such good fun and so lovely too x
Aidan Sadler was truly fantastic! Everyone was up and dancing having the best time.
