Project Arts Centre and Dublin Fringe Festival in association with Soho Theatre Present
Post-popular prodigy Lucy McCormick and her Girl Squad present a trashstep-dubpunk morality play for the modern world.
Casting herself in all the main roles, Lucy will attempt to re-connect to her own moral conscience by re-enacting the New Testament via a Nu-wave holy trinity of dance, power ballads and performance art. With trademark absurdism and enthusiasm, Lucy puts her best foot forward in the face of existential deadlock. In this hour long show Lucy invites you to join her in airing out some festering dirty laundry.
Inspired by East London’s queers, queens, squatters and strikers – come to the real Royal Variety. With guest entertainment direction by cabaret and performance art superstar Ursula Martinez.
