| Be transported to Jazz Age New York's wildest speakeasy
Red hot jazz. Ice cold cocktails. Dancing, dining, and all manner of debauchery. Welcome to The 58th Street Country Club, the crown jewel of Manhattan's Prohibition-era speakeasy scene. This bourbon-fuelled playground may have been dramatically shut down on its opening night back in 1930 but now — almost a century later — it's been reborn. Right here in London.
This is The Greatest Night of the Jazz Age: a stunning new immersive experience by masters of the craft, The Lost Estate. They've reunited with long-time collaborators Darling and Edge to bring a fantastical vision of the original 58th Street Country Club to life, with what is set to be their most ambitious world to date.
This clandestine superclub opens on 7 March at The Lost Estate's sprawling new west London home, and tickets for March and April are already disappearing fast. Luckily, we've scored priority access to 50 new, unreleased May and June dates, just for our readers. (But these new tickets will be released for public booking next week, so you'll have to be fast!)
Click below to grab yours, and RSVP to The Greatest Night of the Jazz Age today. And read on for an illicit taste of what to expect.

| An Outrageous True Tale... This is your chance to discover the scandalous true story of this short-lived super-speakeasy, and its extraordinary host Belle Livingstone. In October 1930, the former showgirl, global adventurer and socialite played host to tycoons, aristocrats, Hollywood stars and even gangsters (Al Capone is said to have popped in) at The 58th Street Country Club, before it was raided by federals on its opening night. |

| ...Beautifully Reimagined Belle herself, played by acclaimed actor Suanne Braun (best known as Stargate's infamous goddess Hathor), will welcome you into her dazzling den of iniquity. She's joined by an ensemble of star dancers, as the gods and goddesses of jazz themselves. This is a fully immersive affair: practice those pin curls, get your glad rags on, and unleash your wildest selves (just watch out for the feds!) |
