The global smash-hit returns to Melbourne! Bernie Dieter’s über award-winning den of inequity, Club Kabarett is turning the Meat Market into the hottest club East of Berlin.
For over a decade, the undisputed Weimar punk kabarett goddess, Bernie Dieter has captivated audiences worldwide – renowned for her riotous original songs, immense vocal talent, and flair for debaucherous mayhem!
Inspired by the historic 1920’s pre-war burgeoning Berlin cabaret scene, Bernie’s modern-day dens of iniquities, create a wild gender-bending place of sexual freedom and celebration of difference – at a time of immense social and political turmoil.
Club Kabarett is a joyous roller-coaster ride of creativity where all punks, freaks and weirdos can come out to play – with no fourth wall, no rules, and where no seat is safe! This riotous show stars the deliciously salacious and immensely talented, Bernie Dieter, alongside her band of legendary misfits and mischief makers.
Over the season the show will welcome people from all walks of life to the Meat Market, as this historic Melbourne venue brims with dangerously funny kabarett, breathtaking circus tricks, gender-bending aerial and a fire-breathing sideshow – all set to the soundtrack of Bernie’s incredible vocals and her debauched gin-soaked haus band.
Cementing herself as one of the standout kabarett artists of her generation, Bernie Dieter has consistently wowed audiences around the world, earning raving reviews hailing her as an ‘electrifying cross between Lady Gaga, Marlene Dietrich and Frank-N-Futer in sequins’.
Blending a menagerie of leather, sequins, satire and a cut-throat wit in the last twelve months Club Kabarett has had a critically acclaimed three-month season in London’s West End, toured to Japan, headlined Fringe World 2025, in Perth as well as headlining Auckland Festival…
Returning to Melbourne, this is your chance to catch this homegrown cabaret icon and international assortment of bombastic friends! But be warned, this limited season will sell out fast, so please don’t be left crying into your feather boas – secure your seats now!
