What Can I Expect from a Cabaret Moulin Show?

​

When you attend a Cabaret Moulin drag show, expect an evening full of laughter, emotion, and pure show-stopping joy. It’s a dazzling blend of glitter, glamour, and razor-sharp comic timing, paired with luxurious costumes in every color of the rainbow and imaginative makeup that both enchants and deceives the eye.

​

Drag is a playful exploration of expression, gender, and identity – a world where every role is welcome, and the audience is invited to dream, laugh, and be swept away. For one night, everything can be turned upside down – and that’s exactly what makes each performance with us truly unique.

​

So... What Is Drag, Really?

If you look up "drag show" in an encyclopedia, you’ll probably find a dry, academic definition. But we’d rather put it like this:

​

Drag is an art form where dream, fantasy, and glamour come to life. It’s about stepping into another version of yourself – being a diva, a star, a joke, a song – and receiving applause and cheers from the crowd.
It’s not something you just watch – it’s something you feel. And when you’re there – whether on stage or in the audience – something just clicks. That feeling is real.

 

What Inspires Us?

At Cabaret Moulin, we draw inspiration from classic Las Vegas glamour, the parodic and playful tradition of European drag, and the modern American drag scene. Our shows are a vibrant mix of makeup, wigs, heels, and characters – from everyday Swedish icons to full-on international superstars.

 

A performance can include anything from “Gittan at the grocery store” to Beyoncé in full concert mode.
In other words: anything can happen – and it usually does.
