Dusty Limits
Dusty Limits will be hosting the song and singing.
Dusty Limits is a cabaret singer, comedian and drunken raconteur. Described by cabaret legend Steve Ross as 'a superior, singular artist', he is one of the leading figures on the 'new cabaret' scene. He made his European debut in 1999, and since then has graced numerous stages from New York to Dublin, Brisbane to Edinburgh, singing everything from Cole Porter to Portishead, from satire to chansons, often with the words changed. He also sings original songs, frequently with macabre and darkly comic themes. With his three-octave vocal range and often quirky song choices, he has surprised and delighted cabaret audiences in venues from the world-famous Don't Tell Mama and Joe's Pub in New York, to the Brisbane International Cabaret Festival. He is also an instantly recognisable figure on the contemporary burlesque scene, and was the 2007 winner of the Ministry of Burlesque Awards for both Best Male Singer and Best Male Performer. Dusty is much in demand as a compere and has hosted shows throughout the UK. He also works as an actor (both stage and film), writer and director and recently appeared in Miss Behave’s Night Nighty Variety Show at the Roundhouse in London

Lily White
High class burlesque mischief from the porcelain skinned Lily White - she will be appearing from an over-sized champagne bucket complete with bottle covered in 'Bubbles' that she will burst. The bubbles are balloons - this act is a take on the burlesque classic - the balloon dance.

The Dead Victorians The Dead Victorians are a three man band who will be supplying background music for the show as well as performing a few spooky Victorian numbers themselves. They have appeared in cabaret shows throughout London performing upon a positive plethora of musical instruments and accessories including accordion, double bass, helicon tuba and bombardon, cornet, tenor ukulele, typewriter, spoons, bells, finger whistles (in that order), sheep and singing songs around the good old pianoforte.

Burlesque Belles - Comprising three young up and coming burlesque performers
Crimson Skye does a comic burlesque act where she starts off in a restraining mask and straight jacket sings 'Crazy ' by Patsy Cline she then strips and decapitates a man in the audience (a plant).
Victoria Butterfly presents a ghostly ethereal number where she is dressed in stunning Victorian regalia with a tiny corseted waist and a hoop skirt. She performs on points. She takes off her top and automated butterflies fly out.
Miss Beau Peek - this specially devised burlesque act involves a real goat's skull and some great dancing.

Windsor Bar
Our ghostly greeters include the walking illuminations “The Victorians” will take you through the evening’s entertainment with the side show master himself Jon Marshall presenting Madame Arcana's Tent of Destiny.

Madam Arcana’s Tent of Destiny and “Halloween Séance”
If you are lucky Madame Arcana will appear in the Magic Mirror of Divination, she will divine your future, including your career and romantic prospects. (She is a fashion guru as well as a mystic and will be completely truthful to her visions when advising her clients!)
Up to 4 patrons can participate at a time - after Madame Arcana's appearance the clients will be invited to take part in a blood ritual - a seer will drip blood from his arm onto a tray of earth - it is hoped that the initial letter of a future partner will be revealed in the soil. There will be a surprise "scary" ending. Each performance will last about 3 or 4 minutes and will run continuously with breaks as required.

Baronial
The medieval majesty of the Baronial hall will be transformed into a interactive harvest festival by the magic of the Laundrettas, a most fabulous flock of ladies. Join in the fun and games as this troupe of actresses, singers, painters, illustrators, gardeners, set designers, hairdressers, dancers, event organisers, lecturers, teachers, students and party princesses will present an interactive trick or treat playground for all who attend. Specially designed cup cakes done by Miss Jackie Cupcake herself, Halloween favours, Halloween inspired sweeties and fortune telling cards will be all part of the fun. Think Desperate Housewives meets the Wicker Man for this party filled attraction.

Renaissance Room
The Renaissance Room is a place to chill with a slower pace of partying.- a place to rest from the mania of Halloween devilment. Relax in comfort and enjoy the devilish projections. Get hypnotised or even dance to the infernal string music of the Cezanne Ensemble, a string quarter from Garstang who their specially commissioned programme. Watch in wonder as the Victorian Corpse Brides dance with their macabre partners.
