1940s Battle of Britain

Transcription

1 1940s Battle of Britain This fun theme night takes us back to wartime Britain in the 1940 s, it is the time of air raid sirens, ration books and the threat of enemy forces entering our country. When you arrive at your World War Theme Dinner your guests will arrive through a realistic sand bag bunker entrance manned by two World War II armed guards. Making their way through to the reception area, guests will be presented with their reception drink by uniformed World War 's officers and Cigarette Glamour Girls. The theming in the main room will be achieved with World War II backdrops including an overhead spitfire and blitzed London terraced house. Union Jack bunting and 1940's advertising posters will cover the walls to help create a realistic 1940's setting. There will also be warning signs and enrolment posters to try and get your guests to join up with the forces. Before dinner is served, Winston Churchill will make a guest appearance on stage and recite his famous 'Battle of Britain' speech. After the speech he will announce dinner. A live World War II theme swing band will play to keep you entertained throughout your meal. After Dinner, a swing dance demonstration will take place on the dance floor with professional dancers showing you all the moves. The shooting gallery will also be open from the end of dinner; an opportunity for all those signing up to practise their aim. At some stage over the course of the evening, the air raid siren will sound what will happen then?
