Brought to life by the masterminds behind Strut & Fret (the team that gave us smash hits like Blanc de Blanc and The Party), this venue is more than just a theatre—it’s an experience. Inspired by London’s iconic West End with a dash of bohemian flair, The West End Electric promises to be Brisbane’s latest cultural playground, perfect for anyone looking to be entertained, enthralled, and utterly wowed.

The curtain will rise with the Queensland premiere of LIMBO - THE RETURN, a reimagined spectacle that’s set to leave audiences breathless. With gravity-defying stunts, fire-breathing performances, and the unique sounds of New York maestro Sxip Shirey, this show is a whirlwind of excitement. And if you’re wondering just how good it is, let’s just say Madonna herself saw the original LIMBO twice and even invited director Scott Maidment to work on her REBEL HEART WORLD TOUR.

One of the most exciting elements of this launch is the return of Brisbane’s own Clara Fable. This powerhouse performer, known for her fire-breathing feats and stunning vocals, is finally coming home. Clara’s journey has taken her from Brisbane’s nightclubs to stages across Europe, Japan, and the U.S., and now she’s ready to dazzle in front of her hometown crowd.

But it’s not just about the show. The West End Electric promises a vibrant, immersive atmosphere complete with a killer cocktail list. Whether you’re here for the show or just the vibes, this venue is set to be the go-to spot for anyone looking to experience the best of Brisbane’s nightlife.

Tickets for LIMBO - THE RETURN are on sale now, and with all the buzz, they won’t last long. Don’t miss out on this electrifying new addition to Brisbane’s cultural scene. Get ready to be wowed—The West End Electric is coming, and it’s going to be epic. Book your tickets now and prepare for a night you won’t forget.
