What is Cabaret?
Cabaret is a form of entertainment that features a variety of live performances, including comedy, burlesque, music, dance, acrobatics and theatrical acts.

About Cabaret Volt-Air
Produced by local burlesque performer Scarlett Whispers, Cabaret Volt-Air draws inspiration from the historic nightclub that birthed the Dada art movement in 1916. As well as questioning the status quo, this space platformed experimental artists who went on to become some of the most influential of their movement.
This event pays homage to cabaret's rich history while celebrating the innovative and interdisciplinary nature of modern performances.
Cabaret Volt-Air platforms fresh talent and creative ambition, bringing together show-makers working in diverse styles. By attending this show, you not only enjoy a night of exceptional entertainment but also support the creative development of London's emerging artists.
