Booked: A Lola’s Library Story
A prequel to Lola’s Library, Booked! brings storybook adventures, dance, and acrobatics to Scarlet Lady’s Red Room in a brand new show.
Overview
Launched on Scarlet Lady in October 2025, Booked! – A Lola’s Library Story is a brand-new theatrical production set in the Red Room. This high-energy show acts as a prequel to Lola’s Library on Resilient Lady, but stands alone as its own adventure.
The Story
Before cabaret star Lola took to the spotlight, she worked as a librarian at sea. Together with her outspoken best friend Mary and the ever-studious Dewey, she discovers a cursed book that unleashes every tale on every shelf.
What follows is a fast-paced journey through storybook worlds, with dancers, acrobats, and larger-than-life characters bringing each chapter to life. Expect hip hop chimney sweeps, steamy acrobatic fairy tales, over-the-top puppets, and even manga-inspired moments.
A Prequel With Connections
For those who know Lola’s Library on Resilient Lady, the show is filled with easter eggs and nods to the original. But no background is required, Booked is designed to be a complete experience for newcomers and returning fans alike.
About Lola’s Library
Created by No Ceilings Entertainment, Lola’s Library launched with Resilient Lady in May 2023. This immersive 75-minute cabaret at The Manor blends singing, dancing, and acrobatics across three chapters, hosted by Lola with support from Mary and Dewey.

How to Attend
Booked takes place in the Red Room and is first come, first served seating. A queue usually begins around half an hour before doors open, so it’s best to arrive early. Crew members will guide guests to their seats once inside. This show is fully seated.
