Cohen Noir: The Beauty, Mystery and Romance of Leonard Cohen. Adelaide Cabaret Festival 2026

REVIEW by CANBERRA CRITICS CIRCLE | 22 June, 2026

Leonard Cohen’s spirit must have been smiling down on Monsieur Camembert’s stunning homage to the iconic legend, the profound “poet laureate of pessimism”. Anyone fortunate enough to have been in the Dunstan Playhouse at Monsieur Camembert’s performance of Cohen Noir: The Beauty, Mystery and Romance of Leonard Cohen at the Adelaide Festival Centre were witness to a triple treat that they would remember for years to come. Cohen Noir is a celebration of the man, his music and his songs, introduced by narrator Yaron Hallis of the three time Aria Award winning group. The show is backed by a remarkably talented ten-piece band, totally adept at gypsy, jazz, klezmer, Latin American and classical.
