Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a timeless Gothic novel that serves as the blueprint for every vampire story ever written. Now, that blueprint collides with the seductiveness of cabaret to create Le Fang Rouge, a House of Cabaret live show in London. Unravelling in an intimate moonlit setting, the show features spicy performances, sultry music and spectacular costumes. Add the supernatural mystique of our favourite vampire, and you’ve got an enchanting 60-minute spectacle that’s worth sinking your teeth into.
What is ‘House of Cabaret’?
Stoker’s original 1897 Dracula novel unravels through letters and diary entries, but that’s not the case at House of Cabaret in London. The 18+ show leans on the centuries-old cabaret art form to share the timeless tale of a blood-sucking vampire that lurks in the shadows along with his temptresses. Under the eerie glow of moonlight, talented performers dressed in opulent costumes serenade audiences with racy dances and theatrical movements over the course of 60 minutes.
Cabaret, its story and the show
From the can-can to jazz hands, there are a ton of instantly recognisable dances and movements associated with cabaret. Even the costumes are iconic in their right (think fishnets, feathers, top hats and those super tight corsets). So, how did the entertainment form become so popular? Emerging as an act of defiance against bourgeois conventions in late 19th-century Paris, cabaret originated as a provocative combo of comedy, poetry and dance.
Rather than retelling Dracula as a static story, this cabaret reimagining transforms the myth into a lively, participatory ritual. The audience is not merely watching—they’re implicated, enlisted, drawn into the moody current where humor and peril dance. Folkloric symbols flash and rituals unfold, but playful subversion and sensory spectacle turn the familiar on its head. The result is an experience that feels electrifyingly new: a gothic fever dream where classic horror and modern wit collide, leaving you entranced and just a little breathless.
Tickets for a moonlit cabaret show oozing with charm, sensuality and supernatural allure are now on sale but only a few invitations remain, so don’t wait for the next full moon to get yours…
Each show takes place over the course of 60 minutes and doors open 30 minutes prior to the show start time. Tickets are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis in each zone and late entry is not permitted, so we recommend getting to the venue with some time to spare.
