The Chinewrde Carnival Collective Presents – Strictly Royal
Strictly Royal, 2012 |
After months of the Kenilworth Carnival Committee struggling to get Kenilworth Carnival back on its feet, the Royal Family have decided to do their bit for this important Kenilworth tradition, and so they have agreed to a special celebrity Strictly Come Dancing live on the back of a lorry during the Carnival Procession - for Kenilworth Carnival Relief!
For this year’s entry, we had a dance floor, judges panel, two corgi’s and a mirror ball.
We were various relevant characters for the day, as follows:
Judges:
Dennis was Fergie
Carole was the Queen of Hearts
Sara was a High court Judge
Craig was the Archbishop of Canterbury
Royal Dancers:
Elicia was Kate
Abba was William
Veronica was Charles
Louise was Camilia
Sarah was the Queen
Onur was Philip
Jac was Anne
Dean was Beatrice
And Ley was Harry
We rehearsed various dance routines and we danced for the whole duration of the carnival.
As part of this entertaining carnival entry we did a sponsored dance (where the proceeds are donated to the Kenilworth Carnival Committee, to help towards the cost of next years’ Carnival) – we have managed to raise £211.40!

Kenilworth Carnival is important to us, as it is to lots of people. It is an important part of Kenilworth's history, traditions and its future... so make sure you're there next year supporting it in whatever way you can!
Next year, we will be supporting it the way we do best - we will be following our manifesto, not so tame, with a twist, a little dark, a little sick, slighty offensive and highly amusing!
