Congregational
Presented by Brighton Dome & Marlborough Theatre
The nightclubs are closing, the village is dying, we’re tired and scared, but the beat of the dance floor’s heart keeps on pumping.
Congregational, is an act of coming together - a newly composed choral service for the nightclub, from artist & vocalist Fatt Butcher. Part concert, part-communion, part-resurrection, the show is a ceremony for the dancefloor; a service to dying nightlife that reminds us to keep on living.
Join your guide Fatt Butcher, heralded by critics as ‘the incredible vocal powerhouse’ (West End Best Friend) and ‘the accelerating decline of humanity’ by trolls on Twitter, on a guided journey of collectivity, song, and the transcendental powers of amyl-nitrate.
Featuring a live choir of professional queer vocalists, complete with superstar DJ and virtuosic piano accompaniment, expect a thumping original score of newly composed hymns for the dancefloor blending house, trance, gospel, classical & experimental music.
So babs, come join the congregation… and yes, there will be poppers.
