Eine Nacht im Weimar!
Music, Tanzen und Kabbarett!
Samstag 29th November 7pm - 12am
Step back into the wild, glittering nights of 1920s Berlin – a city of hedonism, rebellion, and dazzling artistry. For one night only, The Eldorado Deptford transforms into a haven of queer cabaret, live music, cocktails, and bohemian excess.
Be dazzled by beautiful performances and glorious music including;
Mister Joe Black
Joining us from the heady heights of Brighton is dark cabaret darling Joe Black, musical comedy misfit and VINTAGE VAUDEVILLE VILLAIN. Living somewhere between the stages of music, theatre and comedy, Joe Black takes an audience firmly by the hand and guides them into a place where the strange and unusual reign supreme. No stranger to the absurd, Joe Black creates a world where the shocking is the sublime and the ridiculous is the beautiful. One of the leading figures in the dark cabaret genre, Joe Black has toured extensively across the UK, Europe, Australia and America.
Joe Black is a constantly evolving cabaret chameleon, blurring the lines of decency within entertainment and continues to drive music and performance into strange new realms..

About The Weimar:
Berlin in the 1920s was the Gay Capital of Europe — a place where queer life and culture thrived like never before. The world’s first gay magazine was published there; Magnus Hirschfeld founded the very first gay-rights organisation; and Article 118 of the Weimar constitution banned censorship, letting art and queer culture run free. Cabaret icons like Claire Waldoff and Marlene Dietrich made Berlin’s nightlife legendary, while the first-ever gay demonstration marched through the streets in 1922.
For one glittering night, The Eldorado Deptford resurrects this golden, dangerous, decadent world: where queer joy flourished, music was wild, and the night belonged to everyone.
So dress to dazzle, drink to excess, and dance through the decadence… Willkommen im Weimar!
