The ethos of the Stage Door Canteen dance

We at the Stage Door Canteen Dance pride ourselves on re-enacting the same theme with its authenticity to host and serve our guests. From the decoration of the 1930s village hall with bunting and flags to the staff wearing 1940s clothing and hostesses wearing accurate copies of wartime aprons, serving coffee, tea and doughnuts. Our re-enactment of the Stage Door Canteen can be enjoyed and appreciated by those who want to wear their 1940s uniform and civilian clothing in an authentic atmosphere.

Resident DJ ‘Swing Shift’ Chris Reynolds has been spinning the wax for over a decade and dedicates himself to playing the very best of late 30s and 40s tunes. His passion for selecting these tracks demonstrate what the Stage Door Canteen dance is all about: recreating that fantastic atmosphere of a wartime night out for all our dancing guests to enjoy!
