Bloomsbury Theatre - Spring 2010
Preview by Lizzie Guilfoyle
BLOOMSBURY Theatre has two productions lined up for Spring 2010.
Markus the Sadist – May 17 to May 20 at 8pm (plus 2pm matinee on May 19).
Markus Wright just wants to be an emcee and will sacrifice his true voice for that dream contract.
Rap, grime and jazz collide in explosive fashion in an original Hip Hop theatre production exposing the darker side of the music industry and celebrity culture, created and directed by Jonzi D (Breakin’ Convention).
With new music by Soweto Kinch, Markus the Sadist stars top UK emcee/actor Bashy as Markus, alongside a cast of critically acclaimed artists from the UK urban music and Hip Hop theatre scenes.
Tickets: £17.50, £14 concessions, £10 schools (matinee only).
On The Borderline – May 27 to May 29 at 7.30pm (plus 2.30pm matinee on May 29).
It all happens during the night of a charity do. A pair of strangers arrive to make people do the unexpected. A tough businessman spends hours dreaming, a feisty streetwise girl, whose main source of income has been blackmailing, throws the money she has earned in the sea, and a hitman hits the wrong target.
Written by Sally Wyatt and Clara Armand, On the Borderline is presented by Interanimation Theatre Company and directed by Clara Armand.
Tickets: £17, £13 concessions (under 16s and over 60s).
