Mannequin will be available for autograph signings and photo opportunities on this night only.
Drinks will be served.
Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
Miss High Leg Kick is an artist whose work has taken her from intimate cabaret performance to the creation of largescale outdoor events. She specialises in highly accessible work defined by creative approaches to audience engagement, humour and a love of spectacle.
