A first of its kind, TCBC gives a voice to Black, Asian and racially othered performers with showcases, classes and professional productions, including cabarets.
Founded in 2016 by cabaret star Sadie Sinner, this is a creative clap back to cultural appropriation, lack of representation and imitation, such as black-facing or in performance.

This is not a drill, this will sell out! See in your pride til 4am by the sea with the UKs most important performance collective.
"Amazing, educating, humbling, powerful, unapologetic, clever and just beautiful." RedSarah, International performer and Director The Fire School
"The Cocoa Butter Club’s roster of queer performers of colour is one of the most sought after black books around." Dojo
For those that experienced the Lido last year, it gets hot AF. We will install fans, and get water on tap, but prepare to sweat! This is before we've even added in the heat of our performers and DJs!
10% of ticket sales will go to Margate Pride.
