Wonderful Wednesdays - Amy Kingsmill: Light Source

RESCHEDULED FROM WEDNESDAY 20TH APRIL
Tickets for the original date are valid for the new one.

WONDERFUL WEDNESDAYS
See innovative, groundbreaking, new and sometimes experimental work for a price everyone can afford! Our Director has hand selected some of the finest up and coming and established names in new work - and you won't need to break the bank to see them, as we're making all these shows PAY WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD. You can get a ticket for any of the Wonderful Wednesdays shows for the princely sum of anything from 15 to zero pounds - whatever works for you.

Light Source brings light to lost histories of persecuted people- primarily women, and honours them. It explores and expands the use of body performance techniques and contextualises them within the practice of queer people and women, creating a space to share these techniques & histories.

Amy Kingsmill is a radical, queer performance artist, her work focuses on transformation & transcendence, combining beauty with arrestingly visceral actions. She produces minimalist, pain-based ritualistic performance exploring inherently feminist themes.

'Welcome to the new esoteric theatre. Its not minimalist and its not maximal. Meaning a costume drama without sets. The iconography - yes archetypal - is pumped to cartoon colours and graphics. But the speed, the intention, is pure luxury. Amy Kingsmill straddles cabaret/trance/spectacle and infuses the space with exuberance.' - Ron Athey

Pay What You Can Afford.
Doors open 7.30pm, Show starts 8pm.
