QPAC isn't home to a speakeasy, but until Saturday, March 6, it's happy to pretend otherwise. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights for the next month, it's turning the Cremorne Theatre into a club, and serving up a lineup of cabaret, circus, beatboxing, burlesque, cocktails and bites to eat.

Yes, after helping to liven up the South Bank venue during 2020's QPAC Unlocked event, Club Cremorne is back. The same concept remains, so expect to laugh, relax, eat, drink and watch a heap of exceptional performers. Thanks to the circus part of the program, you'll also see hoops spin, tightrope walkers do their thing and trapeze artists swing.

Comedian Damien Power is on MC duties, and the talent lineup spans everyone from Tom Thum and spoken word poet Sachem to Jacqueline Furey and the folks from Circus Company 2.

You can opt for a balcony or table ticket — and, with the latter, you can order cheese, deli and antipasto platters to nibble on while you're kicking back and in in the performance.
