Step into the mad world of Le Cabaret Oublié!

From the team behind the multi-award winning Cirque de Légume comes another adventure in the comic absurd with Le Cabaret Oublié!
Ringleader, maestro, and boss Chauncy has a vision: to create a show dedicated to the lost art of the cabaret. But the idiots he works with have other ideas.  In Le Cabaret Oublié we join this family of clowns on a spectacular voyage into the absurd. From music, to dance, to song, storytelling, theatre, and magic - these hopeful fools put their hearts on the line to create the Show of All Shows!

An immersive underground cabaret experience, Le Cabaret Oublié is a clown show torn from some dusty basement in Pigalle and delivered to your doorstep for your enjoyment!
Le Cabaret Oublié is a world premiere developed exclusively at the Glens Centre, Manorhamilton and performed at the Glens Centre and at the Hawks Well Theatre as part of Cairde Festival, Sligo
