A welcome return for this wonderful retro cabaret night, a tongue-in-cheek effort to recreate the spirit of Thirties Berlin, Forties Moulin Rouge and the "finger clicking Fifties and Sixties Las Vegas of The Ratpack".

Resident band the Hepcat Huzzahs, fronted by the inimitable Miss Nicky Mitchell and boasting a world-class brass section in its ranks, dishes up "a toe-tapping, tub-thumping night of the liveliest jazz, the sassiest swing and sultriest soul".

They will be joined by local singers, table magicians and fan-dancing, tassle-twirling burlesque dancers.

Most of the crowd dress up for the night, so dust off your spats, cravats, ballgowns, basques and hats.
