    Rachael and her badass band of super-humans embrace Afrofuturism and the cult of Grace Jones in this explosive new performance, in which live music and intergalactic visions kick-start a revolution

    POST PUNK / POST FEAR / POST PANIC

    Rachael Young and her badass band of super-humans embrace Afrofuturism and the cult of Grace Jones in NIGHTCLUBBING; an explosive new performance bringing visceral live music and intergalactic visions to start a revolution.

    1981: Grace Jones releases her landmark album Nightclubbing; her body is brown and soft. 2015: Three women are refused entry into a London nightclub; their bodies are brown and soft.

    Grace Jones: a dark-skinned, androgynous, Jamaican woman, transcending societal norms and becoming an international superstar. Then later, three young black women, discriminated against and excluded, their bodies branded undesirable.

    Women to the front, LGBTQIA to the front, People of Colour to the front!
     
    NIGHTCLUBBING is kindly supported by Arts Council England, Camden People's Theatre, The Lowry (Developed with Commission), Greenwich Dance & Trinity Laban Partnership (Compass Commission), Live Art UK, Diverse Actions, The Marlborough Theatre and Greenwich University.

    “British theatre would be completely stymied without tiny, under-resourced venues such as CPT, which are a critical part of the theatre ecology.”
