The Shows
Cabaret Odyssea
Although the term “cabaret” sometimes brings to mind shows featuring striptease or nudity, our production is suitable for all ages.
The show is recommended for children aged 6 and over, although younger children may also enjoy it.
The show lasts approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes, including an interval.
Following the loss of their parents, three children leave the comfort of their family home and venture into the unknown.
In a world filled with traps and illusions, they encounter fascinating characters, each with a different way of seeing the world. Guided, deceived and forced to confront themselves in turn, they move forward, lose their way… and learn to trust their intuition.
Under the flickering lights of the cabaret, appearances begin to crack and certainties are shaken. Each child must find their own path before they can one day be reunited.
Cabaret Odyssea takes audiences on a vibrant, whimsical and sensory journey, where magic, singing, dance and breathtaking circus performances tell a story of choice, trust and courage.
Because sometimes, we need to lose our way in order to grow. And find each other again, changed, stronger and more deeply connected.
A magical moment where anything can happen… until, together, they discover a brighter way forward.
The Magic Mirror opens its doors 45 minutes before the show begins. Take this opportunity to soak up the cabaret atmosphere, discover our immersive pre-show experience and enjoy a drink or a sharing platter before the performance!

The show lasts approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes, including an interval.
Cabaret Désirs reinvents the traditions of Parisian cabaret through a contemporary, glamorous and daring production.
