Step back in time and experience the magic of vaudeville and cabaret at Brunswick Aces with our new monthly event, Viva Las Aces.
Born in Europe in the late 19th century, cabaret and vaudeville became an escape from the everyday. Cabaret brought together music, dance, and theatre in intimate venues, while vaudeville grew into larger productions that showcased variety, comedy, and spectacle. Both traditions celebrated entertainment in its purest form: a night of wonder, laughter, and indulgence.
By the 1950s, this spirit was alive and thriving in Las Vegas. With glittering lights, velvet curtains, and world-class performers, the shows of the era represented glamour at its finest. Audiences came not just to see a performance, but to be part of an atmosphere filled with style, anticipation, and excitement.
Viva Las Aces captures this energy and brings it to Melbourne. Every month, our stage will transform into a showcase of vaudeville and cabaret, with a rotating line-up of acts that keep the experience fresh and surprising. From sultry burlesque to daring circus performers, each night will feature two main acts with live piano between performances to set the perfect mood.
Whether you love the nostalgia of old-world glamour or simply crave something unique on a Thursday night, Viva Las Aces promises an evening that feels both timeless and unforgettable.
Join us for the launch of a new tradition at Brunswick Aces, where the past meets the present and the lights never dim.
