Originally from Australia and now a global traveller, the singer, multimedia artist and “kamikaze cabaret performer” Melissa Madden Gray first appeared in “The Seven Deadly Sins” in 2008, on the invitation of Pina Bausch. She also presented an impressive comedic and ironic evening of chansons and cabaret at the “International Dance Festival NRW 2008 – 3 weeks with Pina Bausch”. In "Don’t be afraid", she will perform the role that Mechthild Großmann created in 1976.
