MOSHI
MOSHI: THE BURNING HELL (Plus support from Girl Ray)
7.30pm,
SOLD OUT
The
Burning Hell is the alter-ego of Canadian songwriter Mathias Kom,
and the band has been on the road in one form or another since
2007, playing everywhere from festivals like Glastonbury and
Dawson City to bars, living rooms, abandoned bunkers, and a mental
asylum in rural France. Musically, The Burning Hell runs
the gamut from introspective folk to hyperactive rock and
roll, and so the band can adapt to its surroundings like a
karma of anthropomorphic chameleons, taking the audience on a
supermarket-cart ride through hooky, upbeat pop songs, dark
ballads about pet euthanasia, and anthems for barbarians,
economic conferences, and love. The Burning Hell
will release Public Library, a new album of distorted
story-songs, in April 2016, and they'll spend the better part
of the spring and summer in their natural habitat: the tour
van.

VINCENT
GAMBINI 'THIS IS NOT A MAGIC SHOW'
7.30pm,
£10
This
is not a magic show is a performance of and about sleight-of-hand
magic: its invisible mechanics, its clichés, and what it tells us
about live theatre and make-believe. In a conversational yet
crafted approach, Vincent Gambini presents astonishing close-up
magic that invites us to question how enchantment and wonder are
produced within a theatrical situation.
Possibly the first of its kind, Vincent Gambini's This is not a
magic show is part performance-lecture, part deconstructed showbiz,
and part magic tricks that leave you, like, omg.
