Ember & the Vixens bring their creepiest cabaret yet to Fairfield Social Club just in time for spooky season. Monster Masquerade is a late-night variety show and a love letter to all things eerie, glamorous and spine-tingling – complete with live music, burlesque, circus and spoken word.

Curated by Selina Helliwell (aka Ember Travixen), the Vixens are known for their bold, empowering blend of sultry performance and theatrical spectacle – and this Halloween special promises to be no different. Expect gothic glamour, hypnotising circus, punchy poetry and just the right amount of mischief.

We love that the Vixens are back with a belated All Hallows’ Eve celebration. As always, fancy dress is encouraged – the atmosphere promises to be as electric as the costumes.
