Roshi Nasehi presents

Ramalama Remix

Wed 29 April - Fri 1 May at 9pm

Tickets £12 - £18 (+ booking fee)

An exciting re-boot of Roshi Nasehi's innovative solo multimedia theatre piece, Ramalama Ding Dong, inspired by real-life experiences of funny, surreal and intimidating racism.

Her ingenious use of live looping and vocal processing technology creates a range of inventive effects onstage in real time, with dazzling and frequently hilarious results. As Roshi puts it, “repeating and repeating phrases to the point of absurdity”.

Roshi has performed the show at CPT's Sprint Fest in 2023 where it sold out, at Newcastle Star and Shadow, Brighton Fem Fest, Colchester Arts Centre and Summerhall as part of the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe where the show attracted very positive audience and press responses.

Now she's bringing back a new version with maximalist experiments with sound art and maximum laughs. A rebooted, playful comic experiment which aims, in Roshi's words, to “turn something awful and hateful into a piece of art.”

The Guardian

"The Iranian folk pop artist has long been well versed in creating sound art with a focus social commentary [here] Nasehi has opted to transform negative encounters into story lines that entertain as much as educate and inform."

NARC. magazine

"Challenging and clever with a quick witted way of whipping up laughs out of the absurd and awful. [Roshi] takes a sledgehammer to some of the bigotry she's encountered as a musician of Welsh-Iranian heritage."

Metro

"Excellent, innovative, fresh - might sound corny but I loved it. It's taught me things as well as making me laugh and cry at the same time."
