The Skandalous! crew have joined forces with Fluorotrash and special guests Naked to bring Electric Circus to Scala on Friday 9 October, a full-on night of beautiful chaos to "tickle" the senses. There’s a also a serious purpose behind the serious fun and laughs the event is raising money to take vital supplies to the people of Gaza, as well as circus to entertain children and young people affected by conflict.
Transforming Scala into a miniature indoor festival of lurve, Electric Circus features ZION TRAIN, Subsource, Slackers Convention and very special guest ONE TASTE COLLECTIVE combined with circus acts, pole dancers, live bands, VJs and DJs. Plus there will be the usual Skandalous! shennanigins of beats, breaks and bass, as well as badgers, psychedelic circus and random acts of beauty, together with seriously top notch bands, foot stompingly good DJs, and maybe even a spot of banana pole dancing. Meanwhile, Naked will be celebrating their second birthday with a ╘damn sexy party featuring Benzavencrane
The Electric Circus manifesto is for maximum fun and laughs whilst raising money for medicines and other vital supplies needed by the people of Gaza. After the last event at Inspiral Lounge in Camden, money was used to buy medicines which were delivered to a clinic in the hills above Gaza City via a Hope Convoy. The clinic was desperately in need as they have been unable to receive important supplies in any other way. The next convoy leaves the UK at the end of November, and organisers hope to raise enough money for further medicine, as well as circus to bring much needed light and laughter to children living in areas of conflict. To make this a reality, organisers are working with the legendary Boomchuka! Circus2Iraq crew.
