Prepare for the “New Sexy†Prepare for “Soul Kittens Cabaretâ€
At the heart of Detroit was one of the hottest spots in town, known for revving things up in the “Motor Cityâ€â€”Soul Kittens Cabaret. Five women by the names of Carmen, Bianca, Brandy, Lolita and Charita fueled it all. Detroit was synonymous with Soul Kittens and The Soul Kittens Cabaret was the hottest ticket in town.
People would fly from everywhere to catch the kittens in action. When it came to the cabaret scene, they were the beginning and the end. Long legs, lean backs and beauty was their middle name. From their sultry sex appeal, silky vocals, dynamic dance routines and eye-catching costumes, The Soul Kittens took customers on the ride of their life. Forging fantasy with fanfare was their game and they played it oh too well.
But, in the midst of the Soul Kittens presenting to the masses all the glamour, glitz and glad times, they were going through their own individual struggles.
Carmen, Bianca, Lolita, Brandy and Charita had always believed in taking chances to see their dreams come true. But the price they would ultimately have to pay, could cost them and those near and dear to them their very life. Despite their sacrifices, they could never really see the rewards of this life they called “Fame.â€
Bianca, had always felt like a sore thumb. She never really knew if she was coming or going. She was a master manipulator, using manipulation as a means tomask her own misery. She would end up taking chances that would cost her the very career she worked so hard to create.
Charita had always known about and seen first hand the pain that poverty provided. She had always worked hard to pull herself up from the disastrous hand she had been dealt in life. A single mother trying to make ends meet and give her son the future she would never have was her system for success. Charita didn’t care what she had to do to keep it together.
Brandy was the baby of the bunch. She left home after the devastating death of her grandfather and never looked back. She bust the cabaret world wide open. From her tantalizing transformation to almost tragically being taken advantage of, Brandy learns the hard way that everything that glitters is not gold and everything has a price and can be sold.
Carmen, could be called “Curvaceous Candy.†The boys loved to call her name and she would answer every time. For a good time, men looked no further than Carmen. She knew she had the goods that could get her anywhere.
Lolita was the matriarch of the crew and the madam of the bunch. She believed that women were just like fine wine and only got better with time. Let her tell it, she was the crème of the crop. From brief rendezvous to extended romantic romps, Lolita had seen it all and made sure that everyone knew it. But, love always led Lolita down the wrong road. She’d dined in Paris, perused the shores of Spain and made love under the Italian sunset. But, no scenic background could really help her set things straight in her own life. Although she had been there and done that, she forgot to discover who she really was.
FOLLOW THEM as they take you on a journey into their life at “The Soul Kittens Cabaret.†JOIN THEM as they reveal everything that really goes down. COME WALK WITH THEM as they discover, amidst the pains, pleasures and false promises, what fame really has to offer.
From catfights to conspiracy and sisterly bonding to backstabbing and dancing to dealing with drugs, The Soul Kittens saw it all and the Soul Kittens Cabaret was at the heart of it all. It’s a look into their world as they discover the real meaning of friends and family and what you ultimately have to forsake for them.
