Holocaust Brunch
We invite you to hear from a pair of Holocaust survivors and one of their descendants, over a delicious brunch. There will be the opportunity to reflect on their stories, and on how, as the next generation, we can keep the memory alive. Or which memories. Or whose memories. Hang on, why are we doing this? And why’s there so much food?
This solo show, supported by Arts Council England and Canada Arts Council, toured the UK and Canada in 2020.

For this night only: The Queen of Music Hall, Marie Lloyd, performs a series of her best-known songs together with ‘real events’ from her life.

A glimpse behind the elusive mask of fame …

Performed at Chutzpah! Festival 2015 / King’s Head Theatre 2014 (sold out).
