Fantastic Voyage: a Bowie Circus Cabaret @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 22 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

David Bowie loved the circus, and we love David Bowie.

Jacksons Lane pays its respects with a once-in-a-lifetime night of spectacular sound and vision that we think will blow your minds. Performers from across the globe come together to celebrate Ziggy, the Thin White Duke, and maybe even Jareth the Goblin King as they choose their favourite Bowie look and song for a night of spaceman-inspired circus that’s out of this world.

 

We have introduced a Pay What You Decide policy for Postcards Festival 2016shows.

You can attend the shows without paying for a ticket beforehand, but tickets can be reserved in advance (max 4 per booking). When the show finishes, you will have the opportunity to make a donation – either by cash on the door or card at the Box Office.

Barn Dance/Ceilidh @ Highgate United Reformed Church
Feb 11 @ 7:00 pm – 11:00 pm

Make sure you keep the evening (from 7pm to 11pm)  of 11th February free in the your diaries for our amazing Barn Dance/Ceilidh hosted by the equally amazing Central London Outdoor Group – a not-for-profit group run for members by members – see our website:  Central London Outdoor Group.

A top live barn dance band (3 musician plus caller) band will be performing at this special event – The Wraggle Taggle Band. http://www.wraggletaggle.com/.

Never been to a barn dance before?  No problem – the caller will teach you everything you need to know.

The barn dance will be at a fab venue in Highgate with plenty of space for dancing, good acoustics and a separate lounge for when you want to sit out a dance but still watch the action.  We also get the use of a kitchen for food, drinks and snacks.   You can bring food and drink to share (like we do at picnics).

Ticket sales will be opening in January.  Tickets will be priced at the ridiculously low price of £13 per head (or £12 per head for members of the Central London Outdoor Group).

How to buy tickets?  See:  http://www.clog.org.uk/p/barn-dance.html

The total number of tickets will be capped at 70 to ensure there is plenty of space for dancing.
