Signs ups for the Cherry Cabaret are OPEN UNTIL 10PM Monday 16th February
Inspired by the roaring success of HotaruCon's FireFly Lounge we bring you the Cheeky Cherry Cabaret 💃
Our very own Saturday Night cabaret lounge variety show. Non-competitive and cosplay-optional, the aim is to entertain!
Singing, dancing, poetry, magic, comedy, burlesque, drag, gymnastics, if you can do it...we'll see what we can do to stage it!
Applications are NOT first-come-first-served, this is a curated show by our very own Master of Ceremonies, Kai!
For everyone else, you're invited to bring a drink, pull up a chair and enjoy a show like you've never seen before.
The Cherry Cabaret takes place after the Masquerade on Saturday evening. All entrants will need to assemble in the Cabaret Green Room at least half an hour before the show begins. The green room will remain open before, and during the show with chairs, water and places to store your bags while you're doing your thing. Attending the Masquerade and Cabaret show briefing/tech check Saturday morning is mandatory so we can check you in (you don't have to be in your show outfit though), take you through the set up, and tech check and make sure we have your details right. If you need to make any last-minute changes, this is your time to let us know! If you can't make the briefing because you're running a panel, or for any other reason, just let us know asap and we'll work something out.
You don’t have to be in cosplay to participate and can be in groups up to 6. Whether your thing is singing, dancing, poetry, comedy, shadow puppetry or aerial gymnastics*, we’ll do our best to accommodate
*We intend to have our Chairman's X Pole A Frame (and the 95 cm outer diametre single point hoop) available at HaruhiCon. We may also have the Chairman's X Pole Stage Lite (with 45mm black powder coated pole). Requests to use either the A Frame or Stage Pole will be considered on an individual basis and may have additional requirements outside of standard Cabaret entrants due to the nature of the sports.
You can enter both the Cosplay Masquerade and the Cherry Cabaret if you wish.
Confetti and bubbles are strictly prohibited. When planning your act please keep in mind others will use the stage after you so don't drop anything that can't be easily picked up. We'll have gophers on hand to help you set up and take down, you'll never be on your own, just let us know what support you need.
We'll be taking any specific backing music needs via email, just let us know a little bit about what you'll be submitting in the Song Request field.
