The Wam Bam Club
The Wam Bam Club is a champagne cabaret and burlesque supper club running every Saturday at the Café de Paris in the heart of London’s West End.
An explosive cocktail of cabaret and burlesque. Lavish costumes, glamorous dancers, burlesque, music, acrobats, comedians and much more. See the video at our current site http://www.wambamclub.com to get a good idea of the show.
It is the biggest, most glamorous, most expensive show in town. We attract a high-spending well-dressed crowd looking for a top-quality night out, plus big celebrations (birthdays etc), hen nights (not stag nights) etc
"As one of the longest-running weekly supper clubs in London, the Wam Bam Club occupies a leading position in its niche. This non-stop parade of sensual revelry and tongue-in-cheek sass features no less than 15 burlesque, cabaret and circus acts. Many of them are residents, endowing the revue with unmistakable character." (This is Cabaret 2012)
