Sharon here, the blonde half of Red Shoes. I just wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself ahead of our very first official Red Shoe Event.
As you probably know from my alter ego, Mrs Jason Isaacs, I’m happily married and although our first event happens to be a singles night, this is not our main priority.
As women of a certain age, we felt there was a gap in the market. Just a bit too old to be traipsing round bars & clubs in our ‘taxi shoes’ in the company of teenagers, but not quite ready for slippers and Horlicks, we decided to create our own events for like-minded, fun-loving, party people looking for a fresh way of socialising.
Our aim is to create events that offer great food, great entertainment & great company in unique, quirky and sumptuous surroundings. If this sounds interesting, then Red Shoes is definitely for you.
So, back to Single & Laughing. With several single friends between us, we decided to create an event with the laid-back, informal feel of a house party, but where everyone is in the same boat – single and open to the possibility of a date. We have chosen Frangipani, As You Like It as the venue and as host and comedian for the night, the brilliantly funny Matt Reed. If you haven’t seen Matt before please trust us when we tell you he’s great. A regular at The Stand here in Newcastle, he has also performed at The Edinburgh Fringe and many other venues up and down the country. He’s a bit cheeky but great at putting everyone at ease.
So, if you have any single friends, who might fancy a no-pressure night out in town, with delicious cocktails to sample, a scrummy supper and the chance to have a dance then please let them know. Tickets are just £20 and can be purchased HERE. We are asking everyone to come with a single friend of the opposite sex, just so we can keep the numbers even, but if you don’t have one of those let us know and you can ‘borrow’ one of ours…
We are looking forward to seeing you all…. Thursday July 2nd – put it in your diary
