Lafayette, London
An irreverent mix of erotic trapeze, penis tricks and audience participation won’t disappoint groups out for a laugh – and a gasp

If anything needs its own word, surely it’s the ceremonial practice of opening a champagne bottle with a sabre. Happily the term exists, and this slick cabaret is named for it: Sabrage. Created by sometime Madonna collaborator Scott Maidment, it unites circus skills, comedy, lip-syncing and song into the kind of package that can nowadays be peddled for more than £60 a pop. For all that it continues to trade on its transgressive origins – the fishnets, the heaving flesh – cabaret burlesque is one of the most corporate artforms going.

With a plucky eight-strong company throwing themselves joyfully at the material, Sabrage is a fine example of its genre. Group bookings up for a laugh, and a gasp, won’t be disappointed. The two-hour show is hosted by double act Remi Martin and Spencer Novich, the one a sexy Frenchman performing Piaf tracks with his penis, the other a bendy American whose Lee Evans-alike physical comedy, scored to a mixtape of pop-culture soundbites and loud tunes, is a highlight.

At Lafayette, London, until 6 July
