What is a cabaret act at an event?

Cabaret and burlesque performers bring old-school glamour: feathers, sparkle, live vocals and theatrical routines. At events they are tasteful and fun, pitched to your audience.

Cabaret works well in Parisian, Gatsby and under-the-sea themes, and as a short set between courses at a dinner.

Where it works best

Between courses
A short set to lift a dinner.
Parisian themes
The cabaret heart of the night.
Gatsby nights
Roaring twenties glamour.
Under-the-sea
Themed cabaret in a treasure chest or shell.
Christmas parties
A glamorous show moment.
Private parties
Milestone birthdays with a theme.

Tips from our team

1
Brief us on the audience
We tailor every routine and costume to who is in the room.
2
Short sets work best
One or two short sets keep energy high without stopping the night.
3
Plan the music
Cabaret usually brings its own tracks. We agree the cue with your DJ or AV team.

Frequently asked questions

Is burlesque suitable for a work event?

Yes, when it is pitched right. We brief the performers on your audience and keep it glamorous and tasteful.

How much do burlesque and cabaret acts cost in the UK?

There is no one fixed price. Every event is different. Prices depend on the acts, the number of performers, timings, travel and location, so we quote each booking individually. Send us your date, venue and timings and we will come back with a clear quote, usually the same day.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can. Friday and Saturday dates in December and the summer months go first, often months ahead. Short notice is sometimes possible, so it is always worth asking.
