Broken Rhythms presents LASHBASH at Uplands Golf Club June 27th 2018 (media release)
One of Victoria’ favourite indie dance companies, Broken Rhythms, is back with their ever-popular fundraiser–LASHBASH.
Why the lashes you ask? It all started when founder Dyana Sonik-Henderson decided to enter her company into the Victoria Fringe Festival in 2012. Looking for a way to market their show to the masses of Fringe fan in line-ups throughout the city, they hit upon the unique idea of extravagant lashes worn by the dancers. The lashes were an immediate hit! And, not wanting to let go of a solid marketing strategy, they returned, year after year, and even spawned the fundraiser–LASHBASH–where every guest can choose to wear brightly coloured and feathered lashes.
See below for more details of this year’s event.
