Selfridges London welcomed a scene-stealing world-first in collaboration with the record-breaking West End theatre production Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, which opened on November 29, 2023. CABARET: The Kit Kat Club at Selfridges was a unique bar experience, where the seven-time Olivier award-winning show took over The Lounge on the fourth floor of Selfridges for the Christmas season.
Imagined by CABARET set and costume designer, Tom Scutt, this was the destination for grown-up festive celebrations that were flamboyant and dramatic in the center of W1. Guests could enjoy a celebration menu of small plates and creative Champagne cocktails, wine, and cuvées from Moët & Chandon, the show’s Official Champagne Partner, while enjoying cameo performances by the smash-hit production’s Prologue dancers at select moments throughout the day.
Costumes and archival pieces from Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club could be seen up close, including the Emcee and Sally Bowles. Exclusive-to-Selfridges limited-edition Kit Kat Club merchandise, including Kit Kat Club Moët & Chandon tins, Sally Bowles gin by La Distillere de Monaco, and Kit Kat Club candles by Cova London offered show-stopping gift ideas, too.
The producers of CABARET AT THE KIT KAT CLUB said: “Since our production of CABARET AT THE KIT KAT CLUB opened in London in 2021, both the musical itself and the pre-show entertainment that invited audiences into its world were widely described as one of the greatest theatrical experiences in the West End. When we heard about Selfridges' festive theme being ‘Showtime!’, we knew we’d found our perfect partnership, as well as the most brilliant space on their 4th Floor to take the decadence of the Kit Kat Club outside of our building for the very first time. The most unique theatrical experience in the West End now met the most unique retail destination in the West End. We really enjoyed collaborating with Selfridges to bring some real magic to the Christmas season.”
CABARET: The Kit Kat Club at Selfridges opened from November 29 for 5 weeks from 12 pm – 10 pm daily.
