Life is a cabaret, old friend. So come to the cabaret! What is a cabaret, though? Cabaret is a mix of music, comedy, theatre, and dance, often performed in an intimate setting such as a nightclub, bar, or small theatre. The format is typically characterized by close interaction between performers and the audience, creating a personal and lively atmosphere. In my experience, it almost always includes excessive eyeliner and sequins.

PVE – Entertainment Fun Facts
Cabaret emerged in European nightclubs and cafes, particularly in Paris in the late 19th century, like the famous Le Chat Noir. Cabarets often explore provocative or avant-garde themes, and the performances can range from lighthearted to deeply dramatic. I have to say that I am drawn to the cabaret format as it is a lasting medium that truly encourages a combination of traditional and experimental art forms.
