Like a dream of fishnets and greasepaint plucked from the collective subconscious of Berlin, CABARET BABYLON smolders in the dark between eras; beckoning the sophisticated gallery-hoppers of Oldtown and The Pearl to continue their First Thursdays long after sunset.
Your distinguished hosts Werner Fincke and Sadie LaGuerre have assembled a slinky sabbat of voluptuous vaudevillians to tease even the most jaded fancies. Dance, music, and astonishing displays of skills unmentionable will scandalize the pristine stage of The Fez Ballroom while the creme de la creatives luxuriate in its Ottoman opulence. Absinthe and Champagne is the cocktail of choice.
Titillation is the currency.
The spotlight moon shines down on hula honey Vanessa Vortex, fair and flexible femme fatale Jacqueline C, Vaudevillian virtuoso Tommy Twimble, the pectoral poise of Miss Angela Gabriel; and if you're good, a couple songs from our Master and Mistress of Ceremonies. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. The buxom burlesque beauties of The Royal Tease hotwalk our guests between featured acts, shaking and shimmying to the Weimar melodies of Shoehorn and The Hat Band.
From the creative minds behind Batty's Hippodrome, The Gun Street Girls, and Societas Insomnia; a one-of-a-kind show guaranteed to arouse, amaze, and entertain.
Cabaret Babylon - depravity has never been more fun.
