This beloved, genre-defying goddess of song makes her Hayes debut with a show that explores the fleeting, funny, and profound nature of “home”- proving that yes, you really can go big and go home.

From her childhood on an Oregon commune, to 15 years of traveling the globe (where home is any place you hang your hat) get ready for a wild ride through big hippy art, and big city escapades, and what do all these travels prove about home? Why, that there’s no place like it. ..

The New York Times calls Rizo “SENSATIONAL… A fierce but kindhearted fusion of comedy, burlesque, performance art, and rock ‘n’ roll.” Drawing inspiration from Piaf, Rizo (né Amelia Zirin-Brown) fully owns the role of chanteuse. In recordings, she is a mysterious figure, a siren ushering you through tableaus of heartbreak, lust, and the murkiness in between. Live, she is an eyeful. 

An international cult favourite, Rizo’s stage shows combine powerhouse vocals, seductive storytelling, and hilariously wild audience experiments. She’s collaborated with icons like Moby, Reggie Watts, and Yo-Yo Ma – whose album Songs of Joy & Peace, featuring Rizo, won a Grammy Award.

Rizo is also a recipient of a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship, a Time Out London Theatre Award, and a London Cabaret Award. She recently starred as Madame Zinzanni in the revival of Teatro ZinZanni, and is now working on a TV project with Michael Carbonaro of The Carbonaro Effect.

Rizo is a part of Hayes Theatre Co's Winter Cabaret Season.
