Burlesque attire is essential, we’re encouraging everyone to dress to impress so if you have a full burlesque outfit and props, please bring them. For burlesque novices, please add a hint (or more!) of burlesque to your outfit, some suggestions include:
– Red and/or black colours
– Feathers or Boas
– Gloves – the higher the better
– Heels – the higher the better
– Basques or corsets
– And for the daring…hot pants or frilly knickers!
Arrival Time: 9.00-9:30am prompt for registration
Location: The Grand at Trafalgar Square, 8 Northumberland Avenue, London, WC2N 5BY – http://www.the-northumberland.co.uk/
Nearest Tube: Charing Cross (exit Trafalgar Square)
Information: Refreshments will be provided as well as access to toilets and facilities to change
Itinerary: The day will kick off with a photoshoot in Trafalgar Square with a professional photographer and national press. The record attempt will also be filmed for online publicity – so dress to impress! By taking part in this record attempt you agree to be photographed and filmed for publicity purposes. Following the photoshoot you will take part in a burlesque masterclass (at 8 Northumberland Avenue – 200m from Trafalgar Square) lead by burlesque choreographer Sharon Kay from Burlesque Baby before taking part in the world record attempt. To break the record we must have over 200 dancers all performing the same dance for at least five minutes – don’t worry we’re going to keep it very simple!
Win a holiday: As a thank you, all participants on the day will go into a draw to win a fabulous 5-night holiday (incl. flights) to Las Vegas courtesy of Virgin Holidays. This will be drawn on the day – Terms and Conditions apply*.
