Other Festival Fun at Festinho 2009

Dressing Up

We just love it when people dress up at Festinho! And so in keeping with the fun and frolics planned by Gideon Reeling (see below), our theme this year is 'bed-time'. So dig out your finest pajamas, dressing gowns and slippers, grab your teddy bear and join in the fun!

Gideon Reeling

Those wonderful chaps at purveyor of bespoke theatrical experiences, Gideon Reeling, will be in charge of this year’s fun and games, and the regiment that is ‘The Pajarmy’, led by officers Brigadier O’Dear and Major Wringroade. Bring your teddy, your pillow, and of course, your pajamas to enlist...

If you’ve been to a Punchdrunk show or played a Reeling game then you’ll know just how much fun is in store. Whoop!

Underbling & Vow

Roll Out The Piano! Doing The Lambeth Barrel! Hmm. Maybe I need some knees-up lessons from the wonderful and wonderous Underbling & Vow? They'll be providing you with sing-a-longs round the ol' joanna, as well as the very finest in cabaret.

The Tea Appreciation Society

The Tea Appreciation Society will be making a brew ha ha at Festinho this year; come and hang loose with the leaf in their ‘Teapee’ - a cotton canvas SoulPad filled with plenty of comfortable cushions, rugs and throws. So when you’re a little tired from all the dancing, singing and boozing in the sunshine, you’ll be able to kick back and choose from a wide selection of fine teas and relax in the Teapee.

Other Stuff
