Wonke-oke
Sat 13 Apr, 7.45pm
Crown House, St Leonards TN38 0BE
What is Wonke-oke? Imagine if the popular pastime of karaoke took a tumble through a dressing up box, did a forwards roll whilst glitter bombs exploded in the background, took a detour through a movie set, shoved marshmallows in its mouth, emerged from a cloud of dry ice, and... you still wouldn't even be close.
The most raucous, ridiculous karaoke night that's ever been!
Don’t miss out!
