The event raised over £6,000, and featured an acoustic performance from Hugh from The Kooks, and Diego’s actress/singer girlfriend Olivia Grant. The frozen margaritas flowed throughout the night while we chatted to the likes of Eddie Redmayne and Billy Zane.

We were just standing by him near the door as he was ushering his friends inside, when all of a sudden we were mistaken for being a part of his group and whisked through the double wooden doors, marks were put on our hands…and these marks got us absolutely everywhere in the club. Roped off sections? Yep. Private rooms? Yep. The completely full theatre? We walked straight past the huge queue of people who had gotten through the wooden doors but were being refused entry into the theatre, and were led inside and up the top to the VIP bar.
Now, Nanny and Grandma, stop reading right now. If you continue reading, I won’t answer to any complaints or expressions of horror at the places I frequent!
The Box is known as the ‘Theatre of Varieties’. It’s essentially a modern day freak show. It’s a cabaret and burlesque where absolutely anything goes. Do not go here sober. You have been warned. Photos aren’t allowed in The Box (one girl who took one had her phone taken off her), but Lotte managed to sneak this one when no one was looking…
Despite everything we saw, I absolutely loved it – I felt as though I’d stepped back into the Belle Epoque/Moulin Rouge era, and boy did it feel like an awesome time to be partying. It’s definitely not a club for the faint hearted, nor one you would frequent on a regular basis. But every now and again? If you can stomach it, definitely.
This is very random, but I love your hair!

You're making me miss London SO SO MUCH. I'd love to go back and do all the awesome things like go to the box again </3 x
Looks like you had a great night and The Box sounds like somewhere I would love to go 🙂
