80s Party near Oxford Circus!
Mystery Exposed: 80s Party near Oxford Circus on 21 February 2010
Icarus is returning to its roots in fringe, so here's an opportunity to party like it's 1981 and help us raise money for the show.
On 21 February, in just under a week, we will be holding a party at:
The Old Explorer Pub
Great Castle Street
Oxford Circus
W1G 0HY
The theme is the 80s; dress up if you dare!
There will be a pub quiz, lots of 80s party games and a chance to catch up and mingle with various Icarus friends, old and new! Entry is £5 including the quiz, click here for the Facebook group. Be there or be very square!
We now have a full cast of 6 fantastic actors and the first week of rehearsals has gone brilliantly for this play about sex, violence, and teenage homosexuality.
