About this Event
Madame Thespia is delighted to announce the return of her Deliciously Diverse Cabaret to Exeter Library - this time wrapped up in snowflakes, fur coats and magic!
Madame Thespia and her longsuffering companion Gustave LeGrump invite you to step through the wardrobe, into the Deliciously Diverse Winter Cabaret 2026!
Previous cabarets have included festive frolics, immersive M**der mystery, absurdist fortune telling and all manner of joyful nonsense. This edition is inspired by the wintry world of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and will feature comedy, music, poetry, storytelling acts and more.
Madame Thespia’s open mic nights are open to everyone, but are especially designed to champion and platform creatives from under-represented backgrounds, including (but not limited to!) neurodiverse, LGBTQ+, non-binary, global majority, late-career and early-career artists.
Dressing up is warmly encouraged - think winter magic, woodland creatures, secret royalty, witches, wardrobes or anything delightfully strange - with a prize for the best costume.
The show will kick off at 7.30pm and last for approx 105mins including an interval. The Library will run a pop-up bar from 7pm selling soft drinks & alcohol
