Article content

As a chill sets in the air, Spotlight Cabaret is ready to heat things up with their latest production, Moolah Rouge.

The eclectic venue sits in a prime location along Whyte Avenue, topped by one of the best courtyards in town. But the action moved indoors, where a vibrant 1920s vibe sets the stage for burlesque shows, jazz music, and its latest dinner and theater offering.

Spotlight co-owners Jeff Halaby and Aimée Beaudoin star in Moolah Rouge alongside emerging talents Tyler Pinsent and Jamie Hudson, which open on Friday and runs through New Year’s Eve. Directed by Trevor Schmidt , this new musical (I think Moulin Rouge meets Call My Agent) features bohemians and showgirls colliding in a “fun and playful story” filled with song, dance and passion.

Tickets for the 18+ show start at $ 55 and include a French-themed four-course meal. Guests must present proof of vaccination or negative PCR test.
