The Sirens really do send out warning signals.

The legendary sirens, come to the seaside once again. Be prepared for a beautifully presented combination of burlesque, slapstick and poetry as the Salacious Sirens take us through their tale. If you were lucky enough to see last weeks performance then don’t think twice about coming back especially due to the promise of a different guest band at each of the three performances for the Fringe.

Baby Loves Disco’s Beach Ball, Monday 30th May 1pm

Because I’m a 2010s baby…
Norman loves a boogie on the beach

One for the young families here. Following on from its 2013/2014 sell out the Baby Disco is back! Brighton’s family dance party returns as club DJs mix summer tunes to ramp this party up. It’s not just a bit of dayclubbing here but dancefloor games, giveaways, and a selfie booth as well as a play area to keep your young ones attention from drifting away. Do dress for it the theme of course is beach party! Think Hawaiian shirts, hula skirts even a fully licensed beach bar (for you grown ups) to keep you alert. Last week we even got a special guest, Brighton’s own Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim! He even came dressed for the occasion sporting a hawaiian shirt of his own. I wonder who may turn up this week?
