Hello Jesse and all. Dance show with Julius Eastman yesterday was pretty good. The Evil Nigger half was amazing, the Gay Guerilla one less so (rhythm is less obvious in this one)

I did Ben Waddington’s amazing Coil walking tour of London on Sunday. Truly fascinating, and mind boggling level of detail and mythology. They had lots of interface with (and competition with) Bronski Beat.

In Paris. It must have been amazing in Geneva last month (the premiere run) as music was played live there. Must have been a big stage, with 21 dancers, 4 tightrope walkers (though they don’t use real estate on the ground) and 4 pianos.
That show was called Outsider, by Rachid Ouramdane and the Geneva theater ballet, in case it comes your way

Age of Content is pretty good, if uneven. I loved Scarbo. I haven’t seen the rest, but Munyazeva, da Silva Fereira and Martens are usually worth seeing.
I’m more on the fence with Ripoll, but I did like Zona Franca

 
3:38am
→ Doris from Droitwich:
@David You’re so lucky to have done the Coil tour! I’ll have to ask him if he has plans for future tours.

Major FOMO vibes on the Polyglot chat today 😅

Hi Doris! And I second–it’s a major dream of mine to do that Coil tour

 
3:45am
→ David (in London):
Doris, he does it once a year in June. Drop him a line and get on the mailing list. He is an excellent guide, a massive enthusiast for the band and incredibly good at bringing their mythos alive and into the everyday world.

Will do, cheers David!
