Lynda Williams, the Physics Chanteuse, Returns to the Stage with a New Show, Atomic Cabaret
Lynda Williams, the Physics Chanteuse, returns to the stage with her new one-woman science-political musical, Atomic Cabaret. This new show combines science, satire, and song to explore the existential risks of the nuclear age, from Trinity to Trident and commemorates the 80th anniversary of the US bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. With video projections of scientific visualizations and archival footage, and original songs, Atomic Cabaret offers a powerful and immersive experience that brings complex scientific ideas to life while addressing the urgent need for nuclear disarmament and global peace. Each performance on the 2025 European tour will be a benefit for local chapters of CND or community peace organizations, supporting their ongoing work for peace and the abolition of nuclear weapons. Tour info is listed below.
“A timely commentary on the life-ending threat of atomic weapons.”
“Old-fashioned agitprop in the seductive guise of a nightclub floor show.”
“Caustic satire and bursts of righteous outrage about the pact with the Devil that nuclear weapons present.”
