The Hottest Christmas Party in St Albans - Studio 54
St Albans Studio 54 - Christmas Party 2010
Welcome to the velvet rope...
Where better to spend Christmas, than in New York? And where better to party than in the legendary club of the Seventies and Eighties...Studio 54! For your chosen night in December, let us transport you from the bleakness of a winter evening in London, to the bright lights of the Big Apple and the unparalleled excitement of Christmas celebrations at Studio 54.
Renowned as being a melting pot of people; it's a place where the rich and beautiful happily rub shoulders with the outrageous, wild and wacky, and where onlookers can feast their eyes on a veritable "human zoo" of amazing characters, a bizarre, self absorbed ecosystem.
As you arrive at the venue, savour the intermingling scents of cinnamon, pine trees and roasting chestnuts as they waft into the crisp night air. Feel the exhilaration of a group of skaters wrapped up warmly in scarves, hats and gloves as they circle the giant Rockefeller Christmas tree, frosted lightly with snow and drenched with thousands of sparkling fairy lights.
As you listen to the joyful melodies of well known Christmas classics, your spirits will lift and modern life will fade into the background as for a few hours you immerse yourself into a crazy, funky parallel world
Entering the Studio 54 Christmas Party St Albans
Having entered the glowing warmth of the foyer, you will be given the opportunity to shed your coats, and more importantly any inhibitions which might prohibit your entry to Studio 54. Only the most heavenly, divine, fun loving and fashionable people are granted entry and as you sail up the pink carpet and pass the flash guns of the rabid paparazzi, the colourful Club Hostess ticks you off her VIP list. Relish the howls of protest which arise from those who are simply not cool, beautiful or hip enough to gain entry.
As you walk through the giant pink fireplace, up the dry iced staircase and enter the Club, prepare to be amazed. Pounding disco beats fill the room, washed in the surf of sound and dappled and splashed by luminescent light. High above, cages hang from the ceiling, filled with lithe young bodies bedecked and painted in an array of silver, gold and rainbow, ruffles, sequins and feathers; they groove and pulsate in time to the rhythm.
Sixties Funky Christmas Themeing
Bar staff with blond afros and pink tutus stand ready with funky cocktails. Hot-pant clad roller skaters serve sherbet dib dabs, popping candy, flying saucers and a range of succulent canapé for the grown ups! Overhead, a beautiful girl with multi-coloured eyelashes and an iridescent mermaid tail gently swings on a trapeze, sprinkling angel dust on guests as they pass below. Suspended high above the bar, are the glamorous bar angels with gilded bodies, gold micro shorts, sparkling hair and angel wings; they "fly" in circles offering ice cold Vodka shots to the revellers down below.
Beneath a sparkling star lit canopy, hangs a myriad of mirror balls, decadently hanging from billowing silks. Two central under lit dance floors pulsate and flash wildly to the music. It is across this colourful terrain that crazily dressed ushers and usherettes will lead you to your seats. The tables provide a wild collage bursting with colour; centers of towering pink flamingos, mirror balls, fish bowls full of exotic baubles, five foot high multi coloured puff balls, and chair covers in hot pink, electric blue and deep violet.
Xmas Dinner and Entertainment
Once guests are seated for a sumptuous dinner, the real extroverts take to the floor to execute their wild and unreserved performances. A train of gold clad-skaters shoots out onto the stage and they spiral round at dizzying speeds amidst the crackling of pyrotechnics. A weird and wonderful collection of camp, funky and sexy people dressed in a riotous array of colours and styles will raise the temperature in the room and lift the atmosphere to new levels of excitement.
Course after course of delicious food is served to guests whilst a procession of spectacular entertainment, including the Boogie Brothers, continues to whip the crowd into a frenzy. Clad in little more than hot pants, sneakers and bandanas, this hot strutting, body popping, jaw dropping crew of phenomenal acrobats contort themselves into fantastical shapes. They juggle fire, balance on each others heads and dance up a disco storm as a waterfall of iridescent, shimmering bubbles cascade around them.
The whole scene is presided over by our DJ, bedecked in gold medallions, lycra and platform shoes as he is flown high above the heads of the crowd. It is from this exalted perch that he orchestrates the party, ensuring that with his continuous stream of music and commentary, the night flows seamlessly from one segment to the next.
Christmas Casino Fun and Games
For those that seek a diversion from the visual spectacle, discreet areas are set aside where they can engage Roulette, Texan Poker and Blackjack. A Glamour Zone hosted by make up artists, offers an opportunity for instant transformation with false eyelashes, jewelled tattoos, rainbow coloured wigs and an endless supply of lip gloss.
Party late into the Night in St Albans
As the evening accelerates in pace and the music shows no sign of slowing down, dodgem cars whiz around outside, while canons explode over the dance floor, showering it with a deluge of streamers and wild colours of confetti. The performers pour into the audience and dance with such abandon that no one can remain unaffected. They pull willing participants on to the dance floor where boundaries soon blur, as cast and guests join a party that will be talked about well into New Year.
