Two of London's finest providers of alt-nightlife join forces for The Eve of Tomorrow. Part fictionary interactive theatre, part club, this spectacle of costume, dance, music & cabaret will be wild!

London in the 1930s. The First World War is a distant memory and the Second World War is yet to trouble our dreams. This is the dawn of technological consumerism: electricity, the telephone, movies, radio, TV have all made their mark. We stand on the shoulders of Edison and Tesla; of Logie-Baird, of Einstein and Kellogg and Fleming.


You are invited by Ronald Frend’s Electric Corporation, a shadowy company that has risen to international prominence, to the global launch event for a host of products and services that demonstrate the shape of things to come. Tonight sees the unveiling of a mysterious new invention that promises to revolutionise communications forever.

 

This large-scale collaboration between Boom Boom Club and White Mischief will be held at a splendid secret location in central London (details revealed to ticketbuyers in the week before the event), whose fabulous period interiors offer a glimpse of forgotten grandeur from days-gone-by. The night will feature cabaret, contemporary circus, roving performance, live music and art installations. An interactive game element will invite guests to unlock the secret of the Eve of Tomorrow.Tonights line up includes: MISS POLLY RAE, sizzling Big Band swing orchestra MY GOSH MARVELLOUS, Olivier Award-winning illusionist MARISA CARNESKY and the barbed wit and golden vocal cords of DUSTY LIMITS. Flying in specially from France, electro-swing hip hop outfit KKC ORCHESTRA, Gin-soaked Burlesque Princess KITTY BANG BANG, Human-sized Slinkies in love from international theatre group BEDLAM OZ, London's Finest Flappers THE BEES KNEES, Crystal-ball-juggling genius MATT HENNEM and Unicycling Male Tournament of Tease finalist ADRIANO FETTUCINI, or while away the hours playing VINTAGE PINBALL MACHINES and of course, expect the full MIDNIGHT COUNTDOWN and many more performers, DJs and sideshows to be announced!
