Christmas Speakeasy

What’s happening?
Dapper up to celebrate the return of the Twenties at our Christmas Speakeasy! Swivel across the dance floor with our DJ and enjoy our ‘Performance Show’ where our fantastic students get to be the stars of the night in their end of year performance. Ragtime Rascals, Our fun-time flappers, will also be there to entertain you and help you pick up the steps on the dance floor.
Who’s Performing?
You! This is your chance to take centre stage as all students who take part in the final course of the year can perform their end of year dance. This is a great chance to invite friends and family who can see what you have been up to in the studio and just enjoy dancing in an relaxed and supportive environment. Performing is not compulsory but we do encourage you to dress-up and to give it a go! Book onto the November course here
Our fantastic all female dance troupe of flappers, Ragtime Rascals, are also rustling up a brand new routine to debut at the party! whilst Fiona and Elena will also be putting together a teachers number. Take a peak at their last duet at Brighton Spiegeltent.
What should I wear?
Don your pearls and braces and step into the Christmas Speakeasy for an evening of Hot Jazz, decadent dance and outstanding performances. Think Bright Young Things and Great Gatsby! Embrace your inner Louise Brooks, Josephine Baker and Coco Channel. Tassels, furs and sequins are a must. It’s Christmas, so the more sparkle the better.
