Set in a decadent Victorian hotel, The Book Club Cabaret is the immersive experience that’s sure to get under your skin.
There’s something undeniably relatable about a young scientist trying to play god. If you could build yourself the perfect lover, why wouldn’t you? The tale of the man who tried to play god and his gruesome creation has captured imaginations for over two hundred years. This month The Book Club Cabaret are giving you the opportunity to envelop yourself in this world of romance and grotesque resurrection.
Halloween may be over, but the spooky vibes just don’t stop coming this autumn. When it comes in indulging in the macabre, it’s always best to go all-out with an immersive experience. Taking over the lavish Victorian interiors of The Gore, the monstrous creatures of Book Club Cabaret are paying homage to mother of literary darkness Mary Shelley and her most terrifying creation.
Bringing together the worlds of cabaret, music, circus and couture, this immersive journey is a rare and riveting experience. Each detail has been meticulously crafted to transport you into the world of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Let this multi-sensory story consume you.
Get dressed and saunter over to be a guest at Dr Frankenstein’s wedding feast, where you can sip on a salubrious drink on arrival before you sit back and enjoy six courses from the twisted mind of Michelin-starred chef Daniel Galmiche. Each crafted course will be worked in seamlessly into a dark whirlwind of theatre, dance, magic and original music. Succumb to the alluring tidal rush of the tale’s exploration of desire, desperation and fatal ambition.
Whether you’re a bookworm or a Frankenstein fanatic, there’s so much to enjoy at this decadent banquet for wayward souls. If you’re interested in upping the opulence, then perhaps take a gander at the Book Club Cabaret’s more deluxe packages. Bringing an added element of outrageous indulgence, their more indulgent packages, from Phosphorous to Gold, all the way through to the Elixir of Life, give guests the opportunity to embellish their evening with wine pairings, bespoke poetry, a ride in a vintage Rolls-Royce and so much more. The possibilities are endless. Why not go all out on a horse-drawn carriage and really live la vie Victorienne?
Nothing is too much. Nothing is too decadent. Nothing is forbidden at the Book Club Cabaret.
