Creator’s Note

The Cocktails Show™ was conceived and developed by Gary Bland as a structured interactive live entertainment format in which audience participation directly influences the musical content of the performance.

The concept combines a cocktail-themed ingredient selection system with a numbered reveal that determines which songs or medleys will be performed. Through this mechanism the audience helps build the show in real time, ensuring that each performance is unique while maintaining a consistent theatrical format.

The Cocktails Show™ was first created and staged by Gary Bland at Le Crazy Coqs, London, in December 2023.
