Alameda Elks Lodge #1015
2255 Santa Clara Ave,
Alameda, California
On Saturday, January 6, 2018, enjoy another jolly evening
of dancing in Dickens' London at the elegant Alameda Elks Lodge at 2255 Santa
Clara Avenue in Alameda, California. Mr. and Mrs. Fezziwig and their beautiful
daughters invite you to A Victorian 12th Night Ball – with special guest
Charles Dickens. After a Victorian dance lesson at 7pm, Bangers & Mash
plays an evening of popular Victorian ballroom dance music and lively English
Country Dances and mixers (which will be briefly taught and called). No
partners required!
Intermission performances by the Peerless Music Hall and
Mr. Dickens himself. Victorian costume (circa 1837-1870, any class), Steampunk
attire, or modern evening dress is admired, but not required.
You may spend the evening dancing in the grand ballroom –
or visit Mr. Fezziwig’s spacious wine cellar complete with musical
entertainment– where some of the less respectable citizens of London, including
the celebrated Mad Sal and the talented cast of “Oliver Twist,” invite you to
join them and enjoy an excellent no-host bar (That means you pays for yer own
drinks, my dears!), and sing along to the sparkling music of pianist 9-Fingered
Fanny.
Cost: $25
