Life is a Cabaret, old chum
Come to the Cabaret.
Come taste the wine,
Come hear the band.
Come blow a horn,
Start celebrating;
Right this way,
Your table’s waiting.
Only a fool would argue against the wisdom an EGOT winner. Especially when that EGOT winner happens to be Liza Minnelli. And that, Shanghai, is why you should head over to newly opened RedBox, a venue that focuses on the knock-out combo of theater and dining. Let’s take deeper dive…
Food
Food as an afterthought to the entertainment? Not at RedBox, where appetizers to mains have been painstakingly put together to not only dance on the taste buds, but also demonstrate aesthetic beauty.
The menu features new twists on classic dishes from Italy and France, as well as other international culinary influences.
A night at RedBox is filled with food and song.






Wine
“Red wine is poetry in a bottle,” said Robert Stevenson. At RedBox, the wine menu is a palatable poem full of reflection and wit. The house red, white and sparkling are some of the best value in Shanghai, and the 10 wines on the list are carefully selected to both surprise and satisfy.
Good value and niche are just the start – RedBox wines break conventions and bring you a new sensory experience. Here you can find a rare Rhone smoky white, a New Zealand red, an Austrian natural orange wine. And then there are pink bubbles because sometimes that’s what your heart desires.

Jazz
Every Wednesday and Thursday, RedBox hosts a night of light and lazy jazz to accompany your dinner. At RedBox, you may be able to taste the same food twice, but you will never encounter the same jazz experience; free improvisation injects life into classic music and makes every performance unique. Melancholy haunts the room with intimacy and passion whisper in your ear.




Cabaret
The night belongs to musicals every weekend at RedBox, a paradise for musical lovers and those curious for a new experience. Enjoy fine dining and drinks while experiencing joy, anger, sorrow and laughter, and find your soul in the performance.
RedBox performances share stories and communicate emotions with the audience through music, dance and drama. Classic Broadway hits, movie standards and iconic cultural moments come to life with the purest interpretation and the most touching physical expression.
There are no special effects – only the purest side of music is shown to the audience with professional lighting and costumes.

Finally, some more wise words from Liza…
From cradle to tomb
It isn’t that long a stay.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Only a Cabaret, old chum
And I love a Cabaret.
