Cabaret de Paris

Kick off the month with a bit of French flair as the burlesque extravaganza Cabaret de Paris returns to The Palms at Crown on March 1st and 2nd. Celebrating old-fashioned glamour, the Parisian-themed revue brings a parade of bejewelled dancers from the Moulin Rouge, aerial pole artists, magic and illusions, circus performance and of course, the French Cancan. 

Australia’s fabulous Rhonda Burchmore takes to the stage as the night leading lady, together with Australia’s Got Talent’s finalist Michael Boyd, performing some of his greatest illusions, disappearances, and incredible magic that you won’t want to miss out on. Make a whole night of it and join us before or after the show at The French Brasserie for a delicious meal that will continue to transport you straight to France through delicious flavours and a fantastic atmosphere.https://cabaretdeparis.com.au/
