Cabaret Takes Over Balthazar For Six Weeks

Balthazar Covent Garden will host a six-week takeover with Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, bringing performances, themed drinks and dedicated dining experiences into the French brasserie.

Running from 21 September to 1 November 2026, the partnership will extend elements of the seven-time Olivier Award-winning West End production beyond the theatre. During the residency, Balthazar will introduce live entertainment, theatrical details, a bespoke cocktail collection and menus developed around Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club.

Guests will be able to visit for the dedicated Friday experience, dine before the production or continue their evening at the restaurant after the show.

Live Performances On Friday Evenings

Every Friday during the takeover, Balthazar will host a programme of entertainment choreographed specifically for the collaboration.

Dancers from the production’s Prologue cast will make appearances within the restaurant at selected points during the evening. The programme will also include vocal performances from former Cabaret cast members, accompanied by an ensemble of Prologue performers.

The Friday experience will cost £65 per person and include a three-course menu combining established Balthazar dishes with options created for the collaboration.

Starters will include:

• Duck liver and Cognac parfait with spiced pear chutney and toasted brioche
• Gravadlax with horseradish cream, pickled fennel and rye bread

Main-course options will include:

• Confit duck leg with pomme purée, smoked bacon, baby onions, mushrooms, parsley and red wine sauce
• Steak frites with béarnaise sauce

A selection of desserts will complete the menu.

Pre-Theatre Menus And Ticket Packages

Away from the Friday performances, Balthazar will offer two- and three-course pre-theatre menus for guests heading to Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, with service timed around the show.

The takeover will continue throughout the week with production-inspired details across the restaurant, a bespoke cocktail list and Dinner & Show packages combining a meal at Balthazar with tickets to the musical.

The collaboration runs at Balthazar Covent Garden from 21 September to 1 November 2026.
