Hi Chixsters. Well I did tell you this was the place to be Saturday night. Seems like loads of you took note! For those who missed out - try better next time!! By about 11pm the Rivoli was rammed once again - a brilliant atmosphere - way more non trans folk this year - it seemed a good number of S&M types, but then it was Halloween, so who knows. But everyone was out for a good time... And everyone seemed to have gone to a great deal of trouble with their attire, most suitable for Halloween!! (nothing that you'd hire from one of those party shops I'd say). Excellent variety of music meant the dancefloor was brimming over all night - a few predictable Halloween favourites (Thriller for example) but the party mood was never spoiled. The only downside - as last year, the queue for the bar - half an hour plus at peak - I know this is out of Claire's control, but I just wish the Rivoli management would do something to help out a bit more, especially on the Halloween night... Otherwise the usual excellent Magic Theatre... if you've ever been before, I think you'll know what I mean! Then on to the after party just down the road at Jam Circus - hats off to the DJ in there too - a brilliant choice of chewns - never so loud that you couldn't hold a conversation either... Finally leaving to make our weary way home in the wee hours - did the clocks go back? A good job too - otherwise it would have been almost breakfast time when I crawled into bed... I did try to find out when the next one would be - March time was the best I could pin anyone down to.... So until then, we'll just have to make do with nearly as good nights out!! |

This was my first visit to Magic Theatre and it will not be the last. A fabulous venue being a listed building, built in the 1950's but looks much older in style. A classic ballroom with a stage at one end. By 10pm the venue was heaving and any exuberant dancing near out of the question. There was both disco and a live band and the sound system wasn't that bad either. This is not an exclusive TV event but dressing up is mandatory and posh frocks are just as welcome as costumes. This also by it's nature is an ideal venue for SO's and I have every intention of persuading the wife to go on the next event, surely before Xmas? And yes, I will dress! Be aware though that the venue is deep in SE London and has no motorways within miles so ample time should be left for navigating through London. Parking is relatively easy and there are quite a few hotels within reach. Highly recommended and if you read this review and want to go, I might be persuaded to hire a bus. |

What a fantastic night, meeting up with lots of friends, dancing the night away, the only problem was that the evening went to quick. Kirsty Scarlet Cass |

Superb event as always. Fabulous cosu=tuems worm by so many creative people and a very friendly crowd and staff too! The only prob is as always the queues at tne bars which are more a product of the narrow design than poor organisation. On the whole a brill evening!

What a amazing venue , never knew such a building existed and what a fabulous evening we had. There were so many superb outfits I felt seriously underdressed and will be sure to make more of an effort next year. The only negative point was the music to dance to only really go going towards the end of the evening but apart from that a definite place to visit again. |
