Midnight in Montparnasse

First Wednesday every month

Midnight in Montparnasse

Celebrate Bastille Day and French Chic!

Step into a night of vintage jazz and French chic with Melissa Western, her 6-piece band, and two captivating burlesque dancers. This stylish cabaret transports you to a hidden Montparnasse salon, where velvety jazz, passionate vocals, and playful banter set the tone.

The show journeys through icons like Édith Piaf and Jacques Prévert, alongside jazz greats of Paris including Eartha Kitt and Nina Simone, with a dazzling nod to Josephine Baker. Expect French and English favourites, gypsy jazz inspired by Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, fiery swing, tender ballads, feathers, and a splash of French bubbles.

A devoted Francophile, Melissa has performed French repertoire for two decades, including performances in France—bringing authenticity, charm, and a touch of Parisian magic to every stage.
