The Sugar Dandies: Spring Fling Tea Party
Dust off the glad rags, put your dancing shoes on and join Colchester Arts Centre at Greenstead Community Centre for a very special treat.
Britain’s favourite tea trolley dollies, The Sugar Dandies invite you to an afternoon tea dance with a modern twist.
The Sugar Dandies, as seen on Britain’s Got Talent, serve up the perfect brew of variety performance, social dancing, and good old fashioned party games. Plus a special guest appearance from Black Elvis to get your feet tapping with renditions of well-loved Elvis songs.
Be ready to join in the fun! Revellers of all ages welcome. Tea and cake included.
Supported by the Essex County Council Arts and Cultural Fund.
