And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
1972-The Future Of Sex | Shoreditch Town Hall | 12-23 Apr
This show from the award-winning and much praised Wardrobe Ensemble was a huge success in Edinburgh last summer, and made a huge impact on our own reviewer who declared it to be “blissful, colourful, multi-sensory magic”. The show explores sex, gender, and the changes historical context can make to sexual identity. See this page here to book your tickets.
The Passion Of Lady Vendredi | Soho Theatre| 12-30 Apr
This looks amazing, so don’t miss it. Lady Vendredi – the alter-ego of performance artists Nwando Ebizie – is a “mythopoetic super heroine and vodou priestess popstar from another dimension” who stars in this piece exploring themes of freedom and control, personal gods and demons, censorship and intimacy. It’s a musical theatre production featuring tracks from a new EP, to be launched alongside these performances, which has been supported by the likes of Four Tet and Gilles Peterson. See the venue website here for more info and to book.
