Following the unprecedented success of their Sydney theatre, The Grand Electric, Strut & Fret (Blanc de Blanc, The Party) have launched a brand new, permanent, 400+ seat theatre in the heart of West End, The West End Electric.

This bespoke new live entertainment venue opened in August, 2024, premiering Strut & Fret's smash-hit circus cabaret LIMBO - The Return.

Strut & Fret, Limbo The Return

Featuring an international cast of circus performers and music by New York's avant-garde composer Sxip Shirey, this jaw-dropping spectacular reimagines the original LIMBO with stunning fire-breathing and gravity-defying stunts.

Performer on tightrope, West End Electric

25 years since Strut & Fret's first Brisbane Festival production, it only seemed fitting to launch the The West End Electric in 2024. The chic and luxurious venue pays homage to London's famous West End theatre but with the essence of historical vaudeville, bohemian hedonism and abandonment.

Set in the stunning new venue, LIMBO - THE RETURN is full of surprising elements; with a killer cocktail list and the kind of experience that will have you on the edge of your seat, this exhilarating extravaganza is one you won't want to miss!
