Baiba Sipeniece-Gavare appears in daring cabaret look in show photoshoot

Latvian television personality Baiba Sipeniece-Gavare has released a photoshoot showing her in the guise of a cabaret diva. The look was created as she prepares for a new cabaret show, "Neatļautais flirts" (Forbidden Flirt), which premieres on 8 December at the new concert hall in Salaspils. Baiba wrote the script herself, and the director is Jurijs Djakonovs.

In the photos she wears a black corset, transparent pink sleeves, a feather skirt and high heels, topped with a hat decorated with a fuchsia feather. Red lipstick, black feathers and a riding crop in her hands complete the image. In one shot she poses with the director, while cabaret performers appear in the background.

A shopping trip before the show

The creators of the show say that during the preparations Baiba bought an expressive riding crop at an equestrian supply shop. Whether it will become one of the show's props has not yet been revealed.

Who will perform

The stage will feature singers Alise Kante and Elīna Mazur and the dance group "Bua Show Agency". Special guests are burlesque artist Zoe Stiefel, Brazilian singer and showman Rodrigo Manfrinatti Gangser, and actor, circus artist and acrobat Mariano "Cronopio" Gedwillo. Music will be provided by the "Mirage Jazz Orchestra".

Dates and tickets

Performances will take place on 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, 20, 28, 29 and 30 December at 8 p.m., and on 27 December at 6 p.m. Tickets are available through the "Biļešu paradīze" network.

The organisers say audience interest is already high, so an extra performance has been announced for 20 December. In February 2027, the cabaret will also be shown in other major concert halls across Latvia.
