A chilling night of Halloween festivities is taking place at Styx this Friday, with the arts venue playing host to a monstrous mix of cabaret, mime, burlesque and live music – and fancy dress is very much encouraged.

For this Halloween night the Tottenham Hale venue will be transformed into “an altar to the undead”, with an evening of circus and cabaret acts taking to the stage to spook you ahead of All Hallows’ Eve.
These include Pi the Mime with his award-winning and genre-defying act, as well as acrobat Hibyan Sky, famous for her aerial pyrotechnics shooting firework sparks whilst being suspended in the air.

The terrifically terrifying entertainment will also include drag act Calvin Decline, Burlesque performer Midnight Iris and mind reading maestro Nelson Brett, a member of the world renewed The Magic Circle.
