NLMagazine Evenementen - From cavernous dance halls to riverside clubs, exclusive West End establishments to bohemian hotspots like The '43' Club – 1920s London was a place abuzz with all sorts of after hours activities.
Join Lucinda Gosling as she tells the stories of the wonderful assembly of characters who inhabited this nocturnal world, including cabaret artistes, jazz musicians, and the notorious ‘Nightclub Queen’ of Soho, Kate Meyrick. Come with us on this virtual bar crawl through a city that rarely slept.

She has written over fifteen books including 'Debutantes & the London Season', 'Holidays and High Society' and 'The London Hippodrome: An Entertainment of Unexampled Brilliance'.
