Dive into the hedonistic world of Sabrage…
The world première of Sabrage is set to create a frisson of seduction in London’s King’s Cross. A place where eyes glimmer and the sensual and salacious combine on a wild ride of big moves, great tunes and more than a few surprises. Sabrage offers heady top notes followed by rich textures, a smooth body, and an utterly unexpected finish. The acrobatic talent and finest cabaret from around the world are serving an intoxicating blend of vintage French glamour, high-end spectacle and titillating acts to infatuate, illuminate and inspire.
After touring 32 countries for the past 25 years, Strut & Fret, with its unique and world-renowned brand of opulent, cheeky, edge-of-your-seat theatre, is excited to join forces with the Olivier and Tony Award-winning Menier Chocolate Factory presenting a cast of international circus elites and theatrical misfits.
Lafayette, in the heart of King’s Cross, opens its doors to this theatrical event for the first time, with the space providing unparalleled intimacy, food and drink packages with the venue providing a unique backdrop to the show.
Guests will have the opportunity to purchase VIP access to our backstage hideaway - Nola’s Bar—an opulent speakeasy that channels the heady glamour of the Roaring Twenties. Tucked away like a well-kept secret, this hideaway fuses vintage elegance with a house-party spirit, where plush surroundings, handcrafted cocktails, and a rhythm of live music create an atmosphere of unbridled revelry. Nola’s promises a night of pure escapism, where the magic lingers long after the final bow.
