Why :
1) I have heard about this for ages and been begging people to go
2) My pal Lucy went and loved it
3) My Mum, who has a similar outlook in life to me, was in town for the night.
4)Great way for Ian to meet my mum for the 1st time :)
5) I found lastminute dot com tickets for £10, instead of the £35 Friday night price...Bargain!
Where: Office Party , Pleasance Theatre Islington, near Caledonian Road.
When: Friday 11 November 2011.
What Happened :
My advice, have a few drinks before you go...and prepare to get involved..its worth it....I don't want to give too much away...but here is the jist of it.
As soon as we arrived my Mum, who was quite excited about this, but also a little, "what if i am the oldest there" nerves...had a few drinks before hand, was welcomed with open arms to Susie from Domestic Services.
My mum slide down the banisters and Susie said, wow, nice boots, love them, you are definitely with the Domestic Services Group, make sure you are in my lot..and then it just kicked off from there...
We got given name badges and were sectioned off into our groups...Susie made everyone relax and we played drinking games and so on..and she told us all about the rest of the Office People..the politics involved....and then we did the conga into the main party...to meet the other groups of HR, senior executives, accountants and so on...
The other actors / head of Executives and HR all played there roles brilliantly, and even allowed my drunken heckling..No one quite knew who was an actor or who was just there to have fun...I got asked a few times if I was a plant, and part of the show...I hope that was a compliment..I took it as one, and just smiled and said, who knows...I am a cleaner..Merry Xmas..great party :)
There was so much going on...that I am glad my mum took some pictures to remind me of the evening..
Another positive...my Mum and Ian got on like a house on fire.
Entertainment : Drinking, Dancing, DJ, 14 Actors, Cabaret, Party Games, Pole Dancing, and soo much more...see below...
Suggestions : None to the people who run it...but to a participant...have a few drinks before you go and get involved...and have an open mind.
Why Not Rating : 9 /10
