29 New Inn Yard, 29 New Inn Yard, Hoxton and Shoreditch, EC2A 3EY

Theatre: , Burlesque

How Much: £20.00 (Tickets)
Ever fancied yourself as something of a flâneur? Ever starved yourself in a garret, stopped traffic due to your headwear, or gilded your pet tortoise and covered it in so many jewels it actually died? For all you budding Baudelaires or hopeful Huysmanss out there, this is the Halloween party for you.

From the same people who put together The Blitz Party and Prohibition comes the second edition of La Belle Epoque, a wonderfully detailed evocation of 19th century Paris and all who dallied in her gaudy, gilded, smoke-filled majesty.

With trapeze artists, "expert absintheurs" (tough job, huh), poetry, music and high society shenanigans, this looks like being one of the best parties in an age.

Don a paint-spattered smock, corset or white tie, cough like a consumptive and join the bloodied and befuddled revellers of a better, more magical age. Amazing!
