Cabaret meets drama in Berlin Burlesque - The Story of Hanussen.
With a dynamic set incorporating multimedia The Lyttelton Circus Theatre Company bring live music and action literally into the audience. An atmosphere is created that will carry you through a range of eras, locations and emotions and leave you on a high.
The story is based on Erik Jan Hanussen, a mentalist and variety theatre owner in Berlin who parallels Hitler’s rise. He was a lover of women and the casbah who played with fire, and got burnt.
Trigger warning: Nudity, WW2 symbology
