Party fundraisers at Casa Maroc
Exeter restaurant and live entertainment venue, Casa Maroc will be raising funds for the International Citizen Service charity this autumn with two lively party functions on Friday 5th and Saturday 20th September.
It is hoped that the events will also raise awareness about the work of the ICS who send young volunteers from the UK and many other 1st world countries to give valuable, life changing advice and practical hands-on aid in the developing world, often in places rife with famine, poverty and civil war.
Entertainment will include a stand-up routine from local comedian, Marcus Gill, live music from Mama Tokus, The Skull Kids, and Aunt Fanny’s Handbag, and a DJ set from Phil Cook who will be playing a mix of Disco, Soul and Funk until 1am.
These events mark the beginning of a regular programme of live entertainment at the venue, organised in association with local music agency, Mingle Music. Manager of Casa Maroc, Rob Neil explains, "The aim is to provide a platform for talented South West performers to entertain new audiences, and there will be special deals available for those who wish to eat at the restaurant upstairs before attending the events downstairs in the Casablanca Lounge Bar."
A monthly night branded The Thursday Thingamajig will take place on the first Thursday of each month, starting with Trifles and Mudskippers on Thursday 4th September:
