Cabaret style describes a performance setup or seating arrangement where audiences sit at small tables rather than in theater rows, typically with food and drink service.
The format originated in intimate nightclub venues featuring singers, comedians, and variety acts: The wedding reception was arranged cabaret style.
The term also describes a theatrical performance mode—direct address to the audience, often with knowing wit and emotional immediacy associated with classic nightclub acts.
