Fellow acolytes of the wondrousness that is Duckie ought to be aware of Duckie's Spring Summer Collection:
Duckie’s new collection of events sees some of London’s beautiful old theatre buildings put to new use: Café de Paris, the Fridge, the Coronet, Bush Hall. Come a celebrate our 10th anniversary, a decade spent putting discos in theatres and theatre in discos. And giving homos and their mates a good night out.
We call it ‘event culture’, these playful fusions of contemporary performance, cabaret, clubbing and the hit parade where Readers Wifes are always numero uno.
The big issues of class, race and sexuality are explored in this season - but this is not the National Theatre, dear, just a bunch of south London club runners looking for alternatives to skating around on broken glass with drunkards at 2am in a backstreet boozer.
Queers have always had social mobility - the gutter and the stars and all that - and we continue this honourable tradition with our locales - from the roughness of the Royal Vauxhall Tavern to the poshness of the Barbican.
Do it do it do it do it!
Firstoff, anyone else up for Duckie Decade, Part 2 of Duckie's extended 10th birthday celebration? Friday 31st March, The Fridge (Brixton), 9pm-3am. Suits and ballgowns encouraged.
Costs £15 and promises to be a fabulous night. Amy and Hazel will looove you.
Be there! |
