Time travel to the 1890s and step inside legendary night-club Le Chat Noir. Become the bohemians and aristocrats of Paris and enter a candlelit world of glittering cabaret, bohemian pleasures, vintage cuisine and live music...
Tonight is the Grand Re-Opening of Le Chat Noir and the club’s founder and provocateur, Rudolphe Salis, is unveiling his new masterpiece. He knows his time is short, and this is his one chance to leave something behind. To secure his legacy.
There is only one difficulty. Of the three parts of his brand new cabaret, only two are complete: Art and Absinthe. The third, Anarchy, remains unwritten, unknown. An enigma even to its creator.
But Salis is feeling confident. He has assembled some of the most extraordinary performers in the world:
Master illusionist Joseph Bautier.
Celebrated dancer Cléo de Mérode.
Chansonnière and provocateur, Yvette Guilbert.
The greatest mime artist of the Age, Paul Legrand.
Armed with a crate of absinthe and a window of time tighter than their breeches, they will attempt to complete Salis's masterpiece and secure his legacy.
No one yet knows whether the result will be a work of genius, or a descent into chaos.
Perhaps it will be both...
