A
event
held at The Station
on Friday 13th September. The event starts at 19:00.
Come join us for an extra special event celebrating the release of writer Vanessa Kisuule’s debut non-fiction book Neverland: The Pleasures and Perils of Fandom.
The night will include a dynamic performance from Vanessa, top notch tunes to grab your crotch and shake a leg to, and a post-performance talk and Q&A hosted by none other than literary powerhouse and bestselling author Max Porter (Grief Is The Things With Feathers, Lanny, The Death of Francis Bacon, Shy). There may even be a MINI QUIZ!
Neverland begins with Vanessa’s childhood obsession with Michael Jackson and goes on to span themes such as family, money, magic, sex, queerness and questionable haircuts.
It’s for anyone who’s ever been obsessed with a pop star, or found out someone they loved did something terrible and didn’t know what to do about it. It’s for anyone who’s ever felt morally conflicted or emotionally betrayed. It’s for anyone who’s ever had two conflicting thoughts smashing against each other in their skulls.
Ticket price includes a complimentary drink. Bring your friend(s), bring your mum, bring your sworn enemy and bury the hatchet. It’s going to be a real Thriller of a night.
A limited number of tickets will be available on the door
Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
