In A Cursed Cabaret we open the gate to the afterlife so that lost souls can have free rein. Step into a performance cabaret where thrills and laughter meet, and where those we otherwise fear are given a voice. We delve into creepy stereotypes, quirky characters, songs and grotesque tableaus. Come and step into the night where fear becomes play.
The first version of A Cursed Cabaret takes place on All Saints' Eve. We encourage the audience to come dressed up – but it is completely optional, if you are not afraid of being taken to the realm of the dead forever.
** NOTE!!!! Prize for best audience costume **
After the cabaret, everyone is invited to dance with DJ_BOO_GIRL. There will be the opportunity to get free face painting upon arrival by Vio Rossi.
A Cursed Cabaret is produced and initiated by Sigrid Lerche and created in collaboration with Josefine Struckmann, Alba Greve, Carla Viola Thurøe and Nicolai Risbjerg.
