Invisible Cabaret is a cabaret and burlesque troupe that perform vaudeville-style variety shows devoted to raising mental health awareness.

Following their first run (funded entirely by Kickstarter) and the year of sold-out shows which ensued, Invisible Cabaret is proud to present ‘Let’s Get Visible’, a mixture of new numbers and old favourites curated exclusively for their Vault Festival debut.

Through burlesque, comedy, dance, original song and more, this troupe of saucy, savvy sexpots aims to ‘strip away stigma’ surrounding issues of mental health. Numbers explore themes such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, intrusive thoughts, and the importance of seeking medical help. Balancing upfront and challenging performances that are sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, the show is carefully orchestrated to make sure audience members leave educated, enthralled and entertained.

“The subject of mental health is still taboo. You know what else can still can be taboo? Boobs. Taboobs. Invisible Cabaret’s mission is to break down some of the boundaries and stigma surrounding mental health, by exploring them in boundary-breaking, stigma-busting art forms. One taboob at a time.” – Cofounders Ferrero Rochelle & Rosie Verbose

‘Let’s Get Visible’ is intended for a wide audience (18+ of course): burlesque fans, variety lovers, vintage enthusiasts… Most importantly, however, Invisible Cabaret is for anyone who has ever struggled with their mental health, or who has known or supported a loved one through their own struggles.

Invisible Cabaret was founded by performers Rosalind Peters and Rochelle Thomas, known by their 'burlesque names' as Rosie Verbose and Ferrero Rochelle. The troupe consists of all-female members specialised in various different art forms, and includes students, actors, and even a newly-qualified nurse. The company's ultimate aim is to espouse and embody liberation from the stigma and shame surrounding issues of mental health.
