Join us for theatrical premiers of Don’t Mind Me and King Larry, and 3 Book launches with complimentary wine and cheese.
A dazzling night of literary and theatrical premiers:
Don’t Mind Me, by Tara Basi, is a queasy comical exploration of mental trauma, to be performed by Frankie Kolar, fresh from her matinee performance at the Old Bailey. No, she wasn't in the dock, as a Barrister she was the one asking the questions. You are tonight's jury, what's your verdict on her performance?
King Larry– by Tara Basi, a modern take on King Lear with fewer horrible deaths and more laughs. To be performed by actor/writer Errol McGlashan, fresh from smash hit performances of his one-man show - Something to Take the Edge Off – at the Camden Fringe, and at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 37 Plays, and soon to be touring the UK.
Three diverse Novel Launches and readings from UK and US writers:
The Insurgent Press celebrate the publication of two new books. Rene S Perez II's UK debut Scavenging is a book of award-winning shorts from South Texas and new material charting Rene's life since moving to London. Cheryl Baden-Powell's debut novel Do they have to be lions?charts a journey from an abusive relationship to taming Tigers in the Arizona desert.
In addition, we’re celebrating the publication of Tara Basi’s Unipolar. In the crumbling near-future third-world country of Kent, recently freed from London’s yoke, Donald, a young management consultant, largely without realising it sets about saving Kent while navigating rampant political corruption, a ruthless cartel, and the ambiguous inward investment plans of the African Union superpower.
