Cruz 101 Manchester Pride 2009 Line Up

hbradley — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 15:41:00 +0000

This year Cruz 101 hosts its 17th Manchester Pride guaranteeing a party to remember. Disco Inferno is the club’s longest running night, nearly as long as the club has been open, and to celebrate its huge success and popularity the club has devoted Pride celebrations this year to the golden age of Disco, when afros and platforms ruled the streets, shoulder pads, men in makeup and ra-ra skirts were the required attire and the disco dance floor was born. With a weekend dedicated to all the hits from the 70s 80s and 90s, including Wham, Madonna, Village People, Abba, Sinitta, Cher, Pet Shop Boys, and Kylie.

From the golden age of the dance floor, this promises to be a weekend not to be missed. Decked out in true disco style complete with a funky illuminated dance floor and mirror balls galore, Cruz will re-live the hedonistic days of Studio 54, giving those who were there a chance to remember, and those who missed it to experience it firsthand.

The 10 day festival kicks off with a special ribbon cutting ceremony to mark the opening of Pride:

The dance troupe Diversity beat Susan Boyle into second place to win the worlds biggest talent show. Dance troupe Diversity have been crowned the winners of Britain’s Got Talent 2009.

The ten-strong dance troupe from Essex and London gained the most public votes in the competition, beating Scottish singer Susan Boyle into second place.

Diversity’s choreographer Ashley Banjo was blown away by the result, told Ant and Dec, “When you said our name I thought I was dreaming. Everyone who has voted – you have changed our lives”.

The group have only been together since 2007 but with members aged 12-25 they blew the judges away with their incomparable ‘transformer’ dance routine.

Earlier this evening, Simon told them, “This is the only performance of the night, if we were giving marks, I would have given a ten. It was sheer and utter perfection.”

Said Ashley, “To perform at the Royal Variety Show would be something we’d remember for the rest of our lives. Boys, it’s gonna happen. You have a cheque for £100,000. And in December you will perform for the Queen.
