PROPS
Another feature that became synonymous with The Raymond Revuebar shows and one which audiences would expect to see was the prop.
Huge extravagant props designed by Gerard Simi on which the dancers would perform their acts would magically appear from behind the festoon in expertly manoeuvred quick changes. Amazing props such as a Formula 1 racing car, a moving vintage Rolls Royce, a jewel encrusted crown, a revolving hand, pouting lips, a Sphinx, a Cobra snake, a shell, a gold safe and the very popular 4 tiered cake that was created for the 25th Anniversary of The Raymond Revuebar and many, many more
