Leading Ladies and Sipsmith

Shaken and stirred, Leading Ladies mix it with the experts from Sipsmith Birmingham

Hippodrome Leading Ladies enjoyed a tasting event with Sipsmith independent spirits in the Marco Pierre White private bar on the 25th floor of The Cube. Forty network sponsors, members and guests were put through their tasting paces by Sipsmith’s Briony Dixon. Historical anecdotes and mixing tips added to the flavour of the evening which raised £1,700 for Hippodrome Heritage, the year-long project in which the Hippodrome is preserving more than 100 years of rich theatre history for future generations.
