We have decided to bring a little extra sparkle to Le Monde this December and will be hosting Cabaret & Burlesque performances on Sunday afternoons & evenings in Dirty Martini here in Le Monde.
This isn’t our first time hosting Cabaret & Burlesque performances as during the month of August when Edinburgh hosts the Fringe Festival we are home to Cabaret & Burlesque and it is one of the top performances within the city.
Cabaret was brought to us in the 1880s and consisted of a series of amateur acts linked together by a master of ceremonies; music, dance, song and drama. Since then, the style of entertainment has spread and evolved around the world, but Paris still holds the crown of the capital of Cabaret. The sky is the limit when performing a cabaret, with crazy feathers and sequined costumes, a daring and theatrical performance on stage.
Going back to the beginning of burlesque, you would find that the meaning of Burlesque meant ‘to parody or ‘to make fun’ in Victorian times. However, things changed in the 20th century and Burlesque became extremely popular in the USA, clothes would come off and the art of striptease was born. Nowadays, there is a strong focus on the visual aspect, with dazzling costumes, a strong ‘story to tell’ and scintillating striptease being at the core of many performances.
