That's where I think Secret Cinema does it well, getting people to dress up, making sure all the food stalls are themed, etc. It goes for total immersion.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-77954645674392471812018-06-05T09:52:26.608+01:002018-06-05T09:52:26.608+01:00Eeeh, these things happen.

There were a lot of speakers, and not a lot of attendees, so I guess the price was high because of that.<br /><br />The scent is nice, though starts very strong and fades a lot, so it's not something I'd put onto work and expect to be lingering at the end of the day.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-31270520365061489292018-06-02T18:19:07.272+01:002018-06-02T18:19:07.272+01:00Oh dear what a shame!

All I remember was that they hearded us onto the stage like it was a school trip, the seating was uncomfortable and I think most of the audience felt uncomfortable. In the second half we were told to sit usual audience seats.

But it wasn't anywhere near as good as I'd expected, I'd rather just have gone to an evening of lectures by Nick Groom and Christopher Frayling and cut out most of the other stuff.Mimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578612522819952936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7211353948967221274.post-21597731917523174342018-05-31T03:45:42.017+01:002018-05-31T03:45:42.017+01:00Sounds like it was a great idea that was poorly or...Sounds like it was a great idea that was poorly organized- and for 40 pound a head it SHOULD have been organized.
