THE legendary Can Can Casino, a show of olde world charm with a hint of Vaudeville, cabaret and burlesque, is coming back to Kilkenny with a Christmas bang. Organisers are delighted to announce the show's return on Wednesday December 23 at Kyteler's Inn.

The all new cast includes Sapphira Swann who has established herself as one of Ireland’s premier burlesque starlets and has quickly become a favourite at the Dublin Burlesque & Cabaret Social Club. Sprinkled with magic, glamour and humour, Sapphira’s cheeky fairytale routines capture the imagination of audiences wherever she performs.

All That Jazz are a four piece dance troupe that perform sensational solo and group jazz, tap and swing dance routines in period costumes.

The Swingin' Bluecats are a jump, jive and swing band that specialise in the type of music that kick started the retro swing movement in the '90s. Suited and booted in 1940s retro style royal blue zoot suits, the band have brought the house down at many prestigious events and venues including the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival and Waterford Spraoi Festival.

Karl X Byrne will be DJ and host for the evening. Karl is well known to many as the presenter of the Speakeasy radio show on Liffey Sound FM and host of the Dublin Burlesque & Cabaret Social Club.

Tickets are €7 and can be purchased at the door at the night. Doors open at 9:30pm and there will be a late bar.
