Event description
"Transformative and WILD. See Grumble" – Peaches
Your lovingly local hysterical heretic and person of interest Betty Grumble is back with her new offering, Enemies of Grooviness Eat Sh!t, a deep dive into grief, pleasure and justice.
Grumble continues her quest for world-saving and love-making via our ancestors of rock ‘n’ roll, poetry and protest in this all-singing, all-howling cabaret du Sex Clown. This is the show she performs instead of an assassination, where laughter is sharpened to a blade, and the body, a feeling tonic.
Grumble invites us to join forces for and with nature, a composting composition, a genre smash of corporeal ceremony and radical ritual.
This is a space for the trouble, a place for recognition and a raising of the vibration towards equal parts hope, love, flesh and rage energies.
Thank you, body!
“…if everyone can get in touch with the Betty Grumble within, things will be all right.” – Suzy Goes See
