Pre-war Berlin might be changing, but the Kit Kat Club is a place where everybody can still be free... where they can relax, loosen up and be themselves.

A scene from the musical Cabaret

Based on Liza Minnelli's legendary movie Cabaret with a soundtrack featuring classic tracks like Wilkommen, Don’t Tell Mama, Mein Herr, Money and Maybe This Time, this electrifying new production will have you partying like it's the end of the world, losing yourself in the song, dance and debauchery of the dying days of the Weimar Republic.

The Playhouse Theatre is now the Kit Kat Club!

The theatre has been totally transformed into the legendary Kit Kat Club so you can fully immerse yourself in the venue's decadent atmosphere.

Everybody will receive a 'club entry time' and is encouraged to arrive early for some pre-show drinks and entertainment. You can even book an intimate stage-side table and enjoy a three-course meal with a bottle of Moet & Chandon Champagne.

What the theatre critics say...

Evening Standard: ★★★★★ "Wow. Just Wow"; Daily Telegraph: ★★★★★ "This is it. This is the one"; Financial Times: ★★★★★ "This Cabaret announces itself as an outstanding piece of theatre"
