Description
Murray's Cabaret Club was once a hub of glamour and excess in Soho, London. This 1960s cabaret club was known for its lavish floorshows, featuring dancing showgirls, musicians, and seamstresses.
The club's founder, Percival 'Pops' Murray, introduced the concept of the 'Cabaret Floorshow', which became a sensation among London's elite. However, the spell was broken in 1963 when the Profumo Scandal erupted, bringing an end to the club's heyday.
This book tells the story of Murray's founding and the lives of its dancers, as well as the work that went into creating its spectacular shows. With dazzling photographs and designs, it reveals the recently discovered costumes worn by London's most glamorous performers.
