Well known from her many TV series, Mary Portas joins us at Kent House to share her fascinating story - from "stalking the floors" of Harvey Nichols before transforming it into the cutting-edge, trend-setting store we know today, to building her own creative company helping brands like Mercedes and Sainsbury's reinvent themselves.
Author of I shop, therefore I am, Mary takes us behind the shop window to reveal how her creativity turned Harvey Nicks into a destination for daring design. A true force of nature - funny, bold, and insightful - Mary promises an unforgettable evening.
Please note: this is an external event. Tickets (£20) go for sale on the 24th of January via a link sent after free registration. To avoid disappointment, please register early!
Doors open at 7pm, talk begins at 7:30pm

There’s a new kid in town! After Six is going to the newly renovated and recently opened ‘The Duchess of Kensington’ - (formerly Coco Momo), for a casual social evening in this welcoming pub. This annual event is always one of our more popular evenings, as it’s a great way to get to know members.
We will meet in the front bar area, where we will nibble on a selection of appetisers. Although there are some tables and chairs available, many of our guests prefer to stand and mingle. Drinks will be on your own tab.
Please contact event organiser Alison Wacker for any queries at aftersix@kcwc.org.uk

See Baz Luhrmann's revolutionary film come to life on stage in the London West End.
The story follows Christian, an English writer, who travels to Paris to join the Bohemian revolution. He visits the city's biggest night club, Moulin Rouge, and falls in love with its star performer and courtesan, Satine.
The Piccadilly Theatre has been transformed into a world of splendour and romance, of eye-popping excess, of glitz, grandeur, and glory! A world where Bohemians and aristocrats rub elbows and revel in electrifying enchantment.
A theatrical celebration of truth, beauty, and freedom and - above all - love.
NOTE: There will be an optional Pre-Theatre Dinner at your own expense. Details will be emailed from the Activity Leader closer to the event to the KCWC members who have purchased a ticket to the musical.
Join us as we discuss The Sisters by Jonas Hassen Khemiri.
MEET THE MIKKOLA SISTERS: INA, EVELYN, AND ANASTASIA. Ina is tall, serious, a compulsive organizer. Evelyn is dreamy, magnetic, a smooth talker. And Anastasia is moody, chaotic, quick to anger.
Following them from afar is Jonas. Like the sisters, he's Swedish Tunisian, raised in Stockholm but yearning for so much more. His life intersects with theirs across decades and continents, from Tunis to Berlin and New York. And when Evelyn goes missing, it's Jonas who tracks her down - and helps break the curse that has loomed over the Mikkolas for years.
We will meet at a member's home - exact location to be confirmed nearer to the date.
