The Cocoa Butter Club are returning to Waterside! The award-winning cabaret, that celebrates performers of colour, will be back in town, this July.
Following their (quite phenomenal) full house Manchester debut in 2019, we're promised a serving so generous, we'll be smelling of Cocoa Butter for days!
It's a spirited soiree, so expect burlesque, live music, erotic poetry, comedy, drag, dance and more, all wrapped in your favourite Neo-Soul, RnB, Jazz, Motown and Blues sounds.
This ones for you! It's been a tough year; So trust the trailblazers of decolonising and moisturising cabaret to be a part of your super summer. We have so much to make up for!
PRESS + REVIEWS
'The Cocoa Butter Club's 'After Dark' shines a spotlight on the sensuality, strength and storytelling power of bodies of colour.' Thomas Stichbury
'The atmosphere was gleeful, fun and supportive. Going alone wasn’t daunting as I was accepted into the home of cabaret and welcomed into a politically charged platform where black and brown bodies aren’t just given an opportunity to express themselves, but are endlessly celebrated. It was a privilege to be taken into a space of such obvious excellence.' Suzannah Ball
