Hola, Raffaellas!
Congratulations! you've just left 2021 behind.
Thanks for making our only event last year such a beautiful one, your support keeps us going and we have plans to bring you a bright 2022 full of memorable parties.
Our first one is comin' at ya on Saturday 15th of January when we will be back at the Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club for a night dedicated to our beloved diva Raffaella Carrà, who sadly passed away last summer at a time when we were unable to celebrate her together.
Raffaella's disco hits, sassy lyrics, and camp choreographies made her an internationally acclaimed Italian diva that transcended euro borders. She was big in Italy during the late '60s and made it to Hollywood during the '70s, but it was during the ‘80s in Latin America and the ‘90s in Spain that she really sneaked into our hearts and homes becoming one of the most prolific TV presenters of the era almost being a member of our families as we tuned into her shows over dinners and Saturday nights in. To a big extent, she embodied the female representation of Spain’s ’90s showbiz imaginary.
A self-declared communist and an activist for women's rights and gay liberation, her legacy will endure beyond the LGBTQ community as her magic works in many ways from bringing generations together and empowering feminism around the globe to loosening up the tightest of dancefloors. As far as we are concerned, everybody surrenders to Raffaella.
As a Spanish queer party, we've played her music at every event we've ever done!! (and we will continue to do so). Some of you may remember that spontaneous pillow fight that broke out when we were performing 'Lucas' on stage.
For all this, we are celebrating Raffaella by dedicating the night to her music and calling on you for the dresscode to match her iconic looks and haircut. It will be the night of a 1000 Raffaellas.
WE CALL ON YOU TO BE THE BEST RAFFAELLA YOU CAN BE!
Para hacer bien el amor hay que venir al Lady Olé!
