A event held at Loco Klub on Wednesday 11th June. The event starts at 19:00.
RIOT ACT- Bristol's Groundbreaking New Cabaret Experience- returns to The Loco Klub with a bang this June with a powerhouse lineup fit to see Summer in in style.
Welcome to RIOT ACT: The Summer Splash!
At the top of our bill, we have two heavyweight Bristolian Legends who need little introduction.
Rapper, poet, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist raconteur-firestarter extraordinaire, the Bard of Bristol himself Dizraeli headlines the RIOT ACT Summer Splash with characteristic rough-cut, transcendental virtuoso lyrical flair. A master modern-day troubadour, Dizraeli (aka Rowan Sawday) has tirelessly documented the stories of our times in an extraordinary, ever-evolving poetic/musical career which now spans four decades. Ever relevant, fierce and tender with a uniquely Bristolian playful lens, come and see the Bard of our city in his element.
Alongside him, Bristolian Comedy Legend Amy Mason sets our stage alight with a masterclass in Stand Up to remember!
An award-winning novelist and writer with credits spanning radio, stage and screen, Amy’s prodigious rise in the worlds of live stand up and viral internet stardom has brought laughter to millions, and put Bristol on the map for new audiences the world over. Sharp, surreal, hilarious and Bristol as f**k, come and see one of our city’s leading creative voices in action onstage in full outrageous glory!
Maverick Musical Vibemaster Supreme, Turntable Legend DJ Chris Tofu MBE takes to the wheels of steel to close our show with an exclusive set fit to start your summer with a bang! King of Glastonbury’s celebrated Shangri La district and tireless champion of Vibe the world over across four extraordinary decades in the game, Tofu welcomes you to get down, dirty and kick through barriers. This is one party you can’t afford to miss!
Kings of Carby Cabaret Chaos SPUDS, whose wild blend of absurdist clowning, madcap character work and razor-sharp social repartee is creating serious waves on the national cabaret circuit. Watch as these two manic man child tatties destroy your expectations of anything you thought was normal.
Master Stand Up Poet Tim Munson, whose verse investigations into the seedy underbelly of Bristol’s poetry scene have laid bare the answers of such urgent questions as “Can pork scratchings really be considered food?”,“Is my father in law actually a Nazi?” and the age old existential conundrum “Will Marmite bring about the next mass extinction?”. Expect the unexpected, made to rhyme with virtuoso comic flair!
Slam Poet Extraordinaire Alexis Brooks, whose distinctive verse comic narratives have made serious waves on the South West poetry scene. Reigning champion of The Hip Yak Poetry Slam, buckle up for an outrageous high-octane journey into the seedy hidden crevices of modern Britain.
Mischievous Magical Mastermind Ben Dali- the UK's only mentalist-hypnotist-cum-comedian-poet. A veteran showstopping mind reader and hypnotist now turned professional funnyman, join him to take a hilarious step into the unknown- guaranteed to be a riot!
And Chief Rioters Samuel L Cohen and Samatar Elmi join forces to host an evening of outrageous high octane fun.
