La Clique Breaks Box Office Records At The Roundhouse
By: Carrie Dunn Nov. 20, 2009
Impossible to define and impossible to resist, La Clique is living up to its seductive charms having grossed in excess of half a million pounds before the doors have even opened on its Christmas season at the Roundhouse. The production has surpassed Fuerzabruta as the fastest selling show pre-opening at the Roundhouse since the venue's relaunch in June 2006.
La Clique at the Roundhouse opens on November 20th for a strictly limited eight week season. It follows a hugely successful nine months at the London Hippodrome which came to an end in June this year when a planned redevelopment of the venue into a casino began. La Clique grossed well in excess of £3.5 million during its time at the Hippodrome and won the 2008 Olivier Award for Best Entertainment. Approximately 150, 000 people passed through the Hippodrome's doors to savour La Clique's heady cocktail of cabaret, new burlesque, circus sideshow and contemporary variety.
La Clique's strictly limited eight-week season at London's legendary Roundhouse promises to bring back everything that was great about La Clique at the Hippodrome, with more tinsel, more glitter, and more glamour. It features a previously unseen lineup that will include old favourites along with the crème de la crème of twisted cabaret entertainers from around the world including; Carl-Einar Häckner, Le Gateau Chocolat, Gerry Connolly, Hugo Desmarais, Marawa, Mario - Queen of the Circus, Meow Meow, Sam Alvarez, the Skating Willers, Ursula Martinez and the Wau Wau Sisters.
La Clique has announced extra performances for Christmas with additional performances on:
Monday 21st December 8pm
Sunday 27th December 7pm and 10pm
Monday 28th December 8pm
La Clique will once again be hosting a New Year's Eve party with a special late night show, mystery guests, champagne, an exclusive after party with DJ, plus other surprises!
