Poor Things: original, funny, gripping and mind blowing. Gaudi meets phallic, with a surreal aesthetic and psychedelic design. A steam punk horror crossed with a hyper coloured fantasy. The plot echoes Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein and it feels like an homage to Pinocchio.
@LeoKearse Sadly that is true . Good to have a laugh though during these tragic times of mourning innocent Israeli civilians, of Jewish babies beheaded and of young people at a house
music festival assassinated.
@MVinny69 I wouldn’t have seen any: prog & rock up their arses, Melanie a throw back, Roxy Music unlistenable. I was at a nightclub listening to funky dance music with new electronic sounds. Bottom line; a new dawn was coming and it didn’t include anyone on the bill in Glasgow in 1975.
@artinsociety Thanks for sharing that dramatic and evocative image of those looming and mysterious stones from pre history. Since Constable
painted that powerful image, it looks as though they had the workmen in to tidy the place up a bit .
Author’s intro and context at the launch and reading of the new novel ‘Budgie Wore My Jacket’. Full of humour, nostalgia and seventies fashion, music, drugs and attitudes #budgieworemyjacket#seventies#bookguild#glamrock#fiction
@RobertElms@JasonCritic It seems to be a Jewish plaque evoking the Temple . It has but two lions for the lion of Judah and the tribe of Judah. It also features two seven branched menorahs which were in the temple in Jerusalem. So might once have been a Jewish centre, court or school .
Book reading of #BudgieWoreMyJacket at Balfour St Barts @balfourstbarts on Wednesday 8th September. Acoustic sets by Malaika Shaw. Seventies themed cocktails and audio visuals. Contact the venue to book a table to eat, or just turn up to a reading.
