★★★★★ | The Service, Cafe De Paris
Café de Paris in Central London is host to The Service – the best burlesque and cabaret show in town.
The Service is a theatrical and highly immersive show that is unique in that it takes the audience back to the time that Café de Paris was a roaring club back in the 1920s, through to the 40s – it’s one of the world’s most renowned clubs. The Service plays such jaw-dropping performances that capture the history of the club – it’s amazing nine-decade history. The Service is fast-paced, hilarious, outrageous – it’s a fun and sexy night where the ghosts of every era of Café de Paris come alive.
Told by the very funny and sarcastic Reuben Kaye – the evening’s host and Maitre d’ – who guides us through the evening by a gang of performers who bewitch, bewilder, and excite the audience. it’s an unforgettable experience and an unforgettable night. And hot and sexy Craig Gadd ends the show in a moving and memorable performance of balancing on one hand while war footage is displayed on his chest – it’s a pinch-me moment. Even Josephine Baker makes an appearance. The Service is must-see cabaret in a venue made for cabaret.
