monthly from 20 December; £65
Be seduced by High Tease, one of London’s most deliciously provocative events, which mixes burlesque, striptease and a decadent, Champagne-fuelled high tea.
The event, which takes place every month at the newly refurbished Victorian-era Grosvenor Hotel – a venue that has welcomed glamorous female guests throughout the ages, including Nancy Astor, Britain’s first female MP, Wilde-era actress Lilly Langtry, and Parisian courtesan Cora Pearl – is a must for hen parties, girly get-togethers and anyone looking to kick off their evening in devilish fashion.
Guests to High Tease will be welcomed with a lip-smacking cocktail before sitting down to an early-evening high tea that will include deep-filled finger sandwiches, rich scones with clotted cream, all manner of dainty cakes and delicacies, and lashings of Champagne.
As guests tuck into their tea, they can enjoy entertainment from award-winning burlesque dancer Bettsie Bon Bon, whose seductive routine will see her perform moves to wow the audience and rattle the chandeliers.
High Tease is hosted monthly and costs £65 per person, including a welcome cocktail, Champagne and entertainment. To book, email The Grosvenor on justine.oconnell@guoman.co.uk.
A ‘Weekend of High Tease’ – a themed weekend of seductive burlesque antics and fine dining – is also available with group bookings and costs £199 per person per night.
