REaD

Time: 8pm
Runtime: 1hour
Ticket Price: £10
Age: 14+

In a world where redheads are strictly segregated and under curfew, red artists have been forced underground and have formed their own Red cabaret clubs. REaD focuses on one such club: The Scarlet Church where the performers’ illicit existence necessitates the keeping of Red secrets…

A cabaret within a play, REaD features song, dance, performance poetry and a hilarious rollercoaster ride through Red history from pre-Raphaelite exotica to social exclusion and popular culture.

A show that’s part catwalk, part political rally, part support group for underdogs everywhere, REaD is a unique celebration of individuality, resilience and the sheer joy of having red hair.
