Sour Silk Cabaret: Vogelbuurt Editie

In this new edition of Sour Silk Cabaret, the spotlight shifts to the Vogelbuurt, a storied neighbourhood in Amsterdam-Noord where every street sings the name of a bird.

Prepare for an evening of eclectic, feather-ruffling cabaret as dancers, acrobats, musicians, and storytellers embody the spirit of the eagle, sparrow, herron and beyond—drawing from local legends, personal histories, and the rich character of the neighbourhood itself. Each act is a memory, mystery, and metamorphosis.

Come celebrate the birds, the buurt, and the untold stories that soar between them.

Sour Silk Cabaret is a poetic fusion of variety theatre, circus arts, burlesque, and live music, staged in the vibrant heart of Amsterdam. Each edition features a fresh constellation of international performers and daring new acts, all rooted in the city they now call home. At its core, Sour Silk is powered by a dynamic, BIPOC-led cast and crew, bringing bold stories and unforgettable stagecraft to life. Sour Silk Cabaret Show used to be called Young Hoops Cabaret and has had sold-out shows at the De Nieuwe Anita, Paradiso and Perth Fringeworld Festival.
