RUBY SLIPPER RETRO ROMP IN TORQUAY ANNOUNCED
Ruby Slipper’s Retro Romp is a three day celebration of vintage brought to you by Devon’s burlesque funsters Kinky & Quirky. From Friday 1st to Sunday 3rd April 2011, vintage and retro loving folk from the South West and beyond can indulge themselves at The Rainbow Hotel Torquay Devon.
For just £99 per person (based on two sharing) lovers of all things retro will get Friday and Saturday’s dinner, bed and breakfast, a three day shopping pass, a two evening’s entertainment pass and a Sunday cream tea – and an extra £30 will get you dinner, bed and breakfast and entrance to the final show on Sunday night.
Opening from 11am – 4pm each day, visitors can root and rummage, ooh and aaah, try and buy and, get their full quota of retro retailing from a treasure trove of eclectic sellers. There will be a programme of events throughout each day to try too, so for those that want to learn the Lindy, try a Victory Roll, get some vintage beauty parlour tips, doodle some cabaret life drawings or pose like a pin-up this will be THE place to do it.
After dark will see the red velvet and gold lame Club Rainbow hotting up as hosts Kinky & Quirky sprinkle their brand of fun & frivolity with a bit of sparkle and some fantastic music to make the joint start jumping.
A killer line-up will feature some of the best names on the U.K rockin’, cabaret and burlesque scenes including a hillbilly hoedown from the Bonneville Barons, extreme hula hooping from Pippa the Ripper, the chap- hop king Mr B, The Gentleman Rhymer and the Axe-tastic Anna Fur Laxis.
