My new client is throwing a fabulous fifty year old birthday party and asked me to design the invitations. The party theme is based on the movie musical Cabaret with Liza Minnelli and Joel Gray - so I spent a little bit of time researching my subject matter and watched some of the dance numbers on YouTube and came up with design below.
This party is going to be the event of the season - a female impersonator is flying in to perform Liza's role in Cabaret along with his back up dancers (the Kit Kat Girls). You are probably wondering why the "Cantina", well the guest of honor is of Mexican descent and wanted to blend in his heritage to the party theme.
The invites will have a little sparkle added post printing and a large scale poster of our dancer will welcome guests as they arrive! They will be creating a little night club look inside the hall as well - too fun!
By the way, If you haven't had the opportunity to see this amazing movie, pop on over to YouTube, there are some wonderful musical numbers - one of my favorites is "Money" (be sure to put in Liza Minnelli in order to see the original musical numbers)
(I must get on this guest list!)
