The Black Cat

The hotel wifi appears to be working this morning so I figured I’d kill some time before showering - these were our outfits for the Black Cat Cabaret on Friday night. That’s my wedding jewellery, and I was wearing it with a ankle-length plain black dress.

The show was pretty awesome. We hadn’t booked for the accompanying meal so initially we were perched on the edge of the room, but we were able to move to the front centre table directly in front of the stage because it was empty for whatever reason. This meant we got heckled a fair amount by the performers which was fun! Our table got set alight when Vicky Butterfly swung out on the aerial rope - the candles set fire to one of the menus and some glasses got knocked over. Kris also got hit in the face with said rope by accident later on. I don’t think the table was pushed far back enough…

Cafe de Paris: The Black Cat Cabaret

 Reach midnight in Paris…

The first time I saw a cabaret burlesque show, it was an absolute…

Fire breathing, backwards burlesque and a 5 minute number about something being a bit too hard…

The Black Cat Cabaret is the perfect mix of the weird and wonderful.
