One Day Costume Sale
Saturday 6th August 2011 Charlton Assembly Rooms, The Village, Charlton, London SE7 8UD
Doors open 11am – 4pm
Doors open 11am – 4pm
We are a theatre production company that has written, directed and produced many professional Pantomimes and Shows over the last 10 years. After much deliberation, we have taken the decision to clear out our stores and have a sale of all of our accumulated stock – a difficult decision for a costume junkie and hoarder like myself. But we would rather these costumes see the footlights again and are used rather than sitting in our store room!
We will be taking over the use of Charlton Assembly Rooms for the day and filling it with hundreds of lovely costumes – some are used and some have never been worn. Perfect for a collector, theatre groups, producer, fancy dress hire business or individuals wanting a stunning costume.
Costumes for sale will include many stunning Victorian gowns from Music Hall shows, Georgian Dresses from Opera productions (some never even worn). Plus a whole range of Tyrolean and Austrian costumes along with Guys and Dolls ‘Hot Box’ outfits, lots of individual, Dresses, Shirts and Skirts etc.
There are also Props, Shoes, Hats, Make Up and Wigs plus some interesting items collected from the last 10 years of Theatre and Film productions…..all at bargain prices.
We have a section packed with Theatrical Trims, Sequins, Fabric Bundles, Threads, Buttons - all perfect for Costume making or Crafts
To support our team who are walking this year’s ‘Shine Walk’ for Cancer Research UK, we will be having a Vintage Cafe and Book Sale of which the proceeds will be added to our fundraising efforts!
There is a free car park behind the Assembly Rooms plus on street parking around the area.
Charlton is 5 minutes from the Blackwall Tunnel and 15 minutes from the Dartford Crossing by car, the Assembly Rooms have bus stops yards away that are on 4 bus routes and it is only a 5 minute walk from mainline Charlton Overground station. It also only takes 10 minutes on a bus from North Greenwich Tube station (Jubilee Line).
