SLOW
CLUB
7.30pm,
SOLD OUT
We
are delighted to welcome back Slow Club, who are touring as a
two-piece, playing songs from their new album coming later in
the year.
Slow
Club is Sheffield boy-girl duo Charles Watson and Rebecca Taylor.
Sweet harmonious hooks, rockabilly beats and exuberant yelps and
yips, all held together by some breath-taking harmonizing.
Slow Club are defined by their own distinct and powerful
partnership - Charles with bruised vocal, rasping guitar and
disarming lightness of touch; Rebecca with her dash of Northern
Soul and sharp wit, switching between vocals and drums like Beyonce
crossed with Karen Carpenter.
Now we find them in 2016 heading into the studio, this time with
Matthew E White. Where this latest collaboration will take them is
anyone's guess. But wherever they go you know it will be worth your
while to follow.

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 clich?s, 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.
"This
thoughtful, playful and multi-layered piece. will make you question
how we watch and what we see"- The Guardian ****
"An
alternative low-key magic show?Quiet, deliberate and exceptionally
controlled"- Time Out ****
