Perform at The Butterfly Club

We present north of 1100 performances of 200 productions every year, many of them new works. Our model is to present short seasons (six performances or fewer) of shows that suit an intimate environment, in one of two dedicated performance spaces that seat 76 and 40 patrons each.

Instead of charging a fixed hire fee or a minimum guarantee, we underwrite the cost of the venue and charge a fee on tickets sold. If your season doesn't sell any tickets, you won't owe us a cent. We also help you by offering our showroom for rehearsals during weekdays, and front of house staff for the season, free of charge.

The format

Our shows involve a single performer or small cast, go for 50-60 minutes, have no interval, and rely on clever writing and confident delivery to convey the artist's message. The content of every show is entirely at your discretion, and we make no secret of having a soft spot for cabaret performances that satirise or reflect on contemporary life.

Preferred dates

If you have no preference, leave this out.

If you want to be part of a festival or a curated season, say it here. If there are no options available in the box, it's because we are not taking festival applications right this second.


Reviews are optional, but very welcome if they help us understand your work.



We know that it's difficult to forecast financials, but we also know that producers who put thought into budgeting tend to have a much better time than producers who don't.

Ballpark figures are perfectly ok, any jokes here will not make you look good. If you don't know, leave it blank.
