the colony room presents: an evening of ECCENTRIC SPACES AND SERIOUS PLEASURES.
the programming for ECCENTRIC SPACES AND SERIOUS PLEASURES builds upon one of the conceits surrounding the colony room. this private club was an extension of the home for a very particular group of artists and personalities in london. the home better than home. a public home.
ECCENTRIC SPACES AND SERIOUS PLEASURES. will be an evening revolving around the english penchant for self enclosure. interior living and all the behaviour it entails will be lending the sonic and visual clues for the evening's program. inspired by the idea of "what has to be said, one says to oneself" we will be conjuring up from various sources such as pub life, victoriana claustrophobia, edith sitwell and the last professional exquisite, stephen tennant, alan moore, et al.
the evening will feature performances by joshua churchill (t/r), rua minx(donna huanca) and bran(...)pos.
