July date for Beaver Club

July date for Beaver Club

Dulcet Sounds' Beaver club night in July will offer the usual opportunity to make shapes to a fantastic and eclectic mix of music as well as some bonus comedy too!

This month at Chorlton Irish Club there will be comedy routines from Bethany Black – star of Russell T Davies' recent series 'Cucumber,' 'Banana' and 'Tofu' - Boltonian Sophie Willan, Dollally, Marie Golbourne and Sharon Heywood as 'Moon'.

Then there's an irresistible DJ set from DJ Zoe McVeigh with a full on 80s focus.

Beaver is a women-centered club experience welcoming all LGBTI persons and their feminist friends. There are guilty pleasures to be had all night from an all female line up playing an eclectic mix from Motown and Soul, 80s and 90s Pop, R n B and Dance classics to Rock, Indie and Riot Girl.

Dulcet Sounds' DJ Hazel O'Keefe is an experienced event manager with over 18 years of experience. In addition to club nights she runs two comedy clubs, Laughing Cows and Comix Live. She is a member of the National Association of DJs and DJ Mark, Gold award holder and was a finalist for Manchester City Council International Women's Day Awards 2014 for contributions to Culture and the Arts.

As well as tailoring the night to the crowd, Beaver also operates an inclusive policy welcoming all regardless of gender or sexuality. The result is one of the most exuberant and fun atmospheres around.

So who exactly comes to Club Beaver? Well the organisers say...

“The lesbians, the bisexuals, the trysexuals, the trans folk, the non sexuals, the feminists, the intersex, the latecomers, the L-festers, the friends of lesbians, the straight queers, the drag kings, the guilty pleasure seekers, those that lived it for real decades ago, the considered to be older lesbians, the lesbian mums, the gay dads, the superbutch, the 'too femme to be gay', the confused, the bikers and hikers, the lentil eaters, the scene haters, just like a change of scene'ers, the artists, the creatives, the collectives… it's whatever you make it.”
