London's Top Burlesque And Cabaret Venues 2009 An Insider's View

London's Top Burlesque And Cabaret Venues 2009  An Insider's View

London's Top Five Burlesque And Cabaret Clubs

All the world's a stage - Well It Certainly Seems To Be In London These Days With The upsurge in interest in burlesque and cabaret. The Problem Is How to spell The Wheat From The Chaff. Below Is an insider's view of London's burlesque land.

Hand in making a list of the Best burlesque and cabaret clubs in London Is A fools errand. The Requirements of a Middle Aged say American tourist from the Mid West IS Going To Be That very different from say of a young burlesque aficionado metropolitan gold hen / office party for that Matter. And that's Before Getting Into theater-style supper club vs. club vs. club-style bar, gay vs. straight vs. traditional gold The Whole Debate neo burlesque. Below are what i call my five "best of breed" burlesque and cabaret venues. I make no Attempt to crown one "best of show" - still my canine simile - Because to do so Would Be errant nonsense.

Madame Jojos
A must for everyone not just because it Is The Daddy Of The burlesque cabaret scene Because goal-through icts superlative programming it Caters for Almost everyone from my American tourist (Go for the weekend shows) to my burlesque aficionado hipsters (go for the showcase and Some Of The midweek shows) not to mention HAVING Some Rather good club nights (that's intended for Another article). If Anything The only groups not well catered for i would say are UK hen and office parties Who Might Find the weekend shows too dumbed down (well you try and find humor Cdn That Encompass 20 different nationalities - Including Japanese - That Is not!) & the midweek show / showcases a mite inaccessible. Wonderful architecture and a convenient location caps off a great list overall package. Other Grumbles Might Be The High Price na na And The purpose and food and drink that's not really The point is it. Criticism Is That My hand it leans far too Heavily Towards traditional burlesque and cabaret forms am and is looking increasingly dated on to it for more avante garde icts rivals - shades of The Royal Academy of Art Perhaps There In The Mid 90s Which go so left behind by The likes of Goldsmiths College With The Whole Thing Brit Art. Still one should "expect a venerable Grande Dame To Be Anything Else - I mean Would you want your grandmother to Be Great break dancing and" getting it on "with the kids Particularly well suited for tourists

Volupte
Again Conveniently Situated in the West End in a Albeit Somewhat uninspiring (goal well decked out) basement is my preferred Volupte London supper club. Programming with excellent comic has good range of Both traditional and neo burlesque performers and for a great website that Matter With not too flash of a flash err. What I like About the programming Especially Is That icts Both sophisticated and accessible at the Same Time Which Something from my own experience IS Quite Hard to Achieve. Everything is just right From The Ever So crisp white linen table clothes To The false Edwardian table lamps. Good food and drinks too Service With A broad course (Albeit Somewhat obscured behind Pillars For Some tables so do make sure to check When booking!). Unfortunately by Grumbles have a supper club atmosphere Can Be The Bit Restrained To Say The Least With A Holborn and address very Dominated office party (the yards of white linen surpassed only by The acres of white shirts and ties Office Of The Workers Who goes down like pack) n The Audience Is Somewhat less sophisticated Than The shows (the management by the way are complimented To Be Ignoring for the "I want more tits and ass" brigade). I am not a great fan of the standing tickets and Either WITH ALL West End have come yes the Price are high. An excellent late license caps off a great night out. Oh and please do Avid expensive imitations like Pigalle's Which I Have Heard Nothing But bad reports about (Vince Powers "should really stick to rock and roll!)
