After their first sell-out solo show SWARM at CPT last year, Liv Ello is back with this work-in-progress of their new solo show interrogating the relationship between class and gender in Britain through anti-drag persona, Jack The Mack.

He’s a lover and a fighter
He’s a cheeky little blighter
He’s a mod and he’s a punk
He’s a commy and a drunk
Some say he’s posh and he’s a queer
Or are those just the things he fears?
So grab a pint and ponce a smoke
And see if Jack’s really a bloke

Through the nostalgic lens of Britpop, classic sitcoms and potato smileys, Liv Ello combines a raucous blend of music, comedy and monologues to subvert and disrupt class-based portrayals of masculinity.

OH GENDER, UP YOURS!

"“when d’ya think you’ll get a real job?”"

"The seed commission has made me feel supported, not just as an artist but also a woman of colour whose story needs to be heard."
