Brrr - it's cold in here, time to heat it up with some Christmas cheer!

From the multi-talented, award-winning Black and POC cabaret collective, it's The Cocoa Butter Club Christmas Show.

A winter wonderland, where the melanated are celebrated, filled with festive song, dance, drag and burlesque, plus a sprinkle of circus and sideshow! This generous serving of The Cocoa Butter Club is a joyful, joyful celebration in the perfect package, adding decadence to December.

Set to a seasonal soundtrack of RnB and Old Skool jams, this exquisite evening of excellence will have you wishing it was Christmas every day!

The stunning line-up includes:

The Hostess with the mostest, Sadie Sinner the Songbird (She/They) performs a seamless repertoire bursting with the RnB, Blues, Jazz, Motown, Funk and Neo-soul that raised her, Sadie brings entire rooms to their feet- her vocals and vibe, compelling them to dance the night away!

Beau Jangles (They/Them) is the vintage-style drag king whose comedy, live singing, and old-school charm gives audiences performances that have been called “compelling” (The Guardian) and “charming” (Theatre Weekly).

Amazí (She/Her) is a two time Guiness World Record holding hula-hooper with a twist. Originating from East London, Amazí draws from her West African roots to inspire her vibrant costumes and performance style, with a touch of mystery. A full time hula-hooper, fire performer and roller-skater, she is also Head of Performance for Guinness World Record Holding hoop troupe Marawa's Majorettes.

Lauren Elise (She/Her) is a pole artist with a host of international competitions and performances under her belt. She’ll keep you transfixed with her mesmerising fluidity and dynamic floorwork, all while wearing a pair of monster 10inch heels.

Kiki Snatch (She/Her) is a soulful singer with tones and runs to engage and tantalise your presence while also being a fierce lip-sync and dance trickster keeping you captivated and always wanting to Kiki with Miss Snatch.

Mimi Sugarpill (She/Her) is a neo-burlesque performer and singer with a voice like butter and the smile of an angel. Dangerously addictive, this petite powerhouse will captivate and tease the room with velvety smooth vocals and a tantalising roll of her hips.

Mel Lee (She/Her) is a multi-award winning pole artist based in London. She is a passionate movement artist who has been performing contortion, pole dance and flying pole for over 7 years. Her past titles include winner of Pole Sport Organisation Zurich and winner of Miss Pole Dance Scotland.
