In a live launch event, Francesca Baglione (aka Miss High Leg Kick) will introduce the newest member of her troupe.
Mannequin is a new Miss High Leg Kick project inspired by her recent research on Japanese Kabuki Theatre, vocaloid Hatsune Miku and the 1987 film Mannequin.

Mannequin will be available for autograph signings and photo opportunities on this night only.
Drinks will be served.

Miss High Leg Kick is an artist whose work has taken her from intimate cabaret performance to the creation of largescale outdoor events. She specialises in highly accessible work defined by creative approaches to audience engagement, humour and a love of spectacle.
