   Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough







Mamma Mia, here we go again!


You should be so lucky to be taken down a yellow brick road to the days when Molly Meldrum had hair and Michael
Jackson had a nose.  When the feeling's gone and you can't go on, it's no tragedy - head on down to the YMCA for a boogie wonderland of ABBA, Culture Club, Madonna, Kylie, Queen and the Bee Gees.

Cabaret Latte's twist on the 70s and 80s is enough to send you on a Stairway to Heaven.

   Red Hot and Broadway

Get ready for a big night out!

Cabaret Latte offers you a front row seat at the most popular stage shows of the 20th century.  The music's brassy, crowd-pleasing and louder than a Peter Allen Hawaiian shirt!

Pure old-fashioned entertainment, this show takes you from Showboat to Sweet Charity, Cabaret to Chess... and we don't Miss Saigon!  Sensational show-stoppers from Broadway's best: Rodgers and Hammerstein, Bernstein and Sondheim, Lloyd and Webber!

The hills are alive!

 

   Cocktail Lounge

Sultry, romantic, it's cocktails at nine.

If you want a smooth, sexy bland of jazz and cabaret standards, then relax, sink into the club lounge and let Cabaret Latte's sophisticated harmonies weave a little magic into your night.

Timeless nightclub music from the 1930's to the 50s: Manhattan torch songs, bittersweet Berlin cabaret, and breezy Brazilian bossa nova.  Add a dash of Sinatra, a twist of Cole Porter...and you have the perfect backdrop for your stylish special event.

   Example theme performance: La Scala to Lloyd Webber


A Night of Opera and Classic Music Theatre

Who said opera can’t be fun! Cabaret Latte presents some of your all – time favourite arias and ensembles from the world’s greatest operas. Glorious music from La Traviata, Die Fledermaus, Lakmé, The Mikado and more! But expect a few surprises along the way in this somewhat cheeky look at 300 years of Grand Opera. 

Raise your glasses to the delightful “Champagne Aria” from Die Fledermaus and then be transported to a Venetian Gondola with the beautiful Barcarolle from The Tales of Hoffmann. The haunting “Flower Duet” from Lakmé is a perennial favourite, recently made famous by its use in a British Airways advertisement! Cabaret Latte will also perform a glorious new version of the world wide hit Nella Fantasia, as recorded by Il Divo and Amici.  

Then take a front row seat at the most popular stage shows of the 20th century. Pure old-fashioned entertainment, with songs from Sweet Charity, Showboat, A Chorus Line and more! Be taken back to the gritty 1920’s in Kander and Ebb’s Chicago and then become caught up in the tragedy of the Vietnam War in Miss Saigon, which recently completed a successful season here in Melbourne. Cabaret Latte sings sensational show-stoppers from Broadway’s best: Rodgers and Hammerstein, Bernstein and Sondheim, and of course… Andrew Lloyd Webber!
