The Hanging Gardens Of Brighton: Fri 25th–Sun 27th May

May 15, 2012
-
Posted by Stuart Huggett

A three-day festival coinciding with the end of the Fringe, this Babylon-inspired weekender is themed as “a playful parody of the rise and fall of civilisation”. Two marquees play host to a strong line up of live acts, including The Go! Team, Dub Pistols, One Giant Leap’s Jamie Catto and Alabama 3, plus a healthy selection of cabaret performers and DJs. As you’d expect from the Old Steine site, capacity is limited, so advance tickets are probably a necessity.

His huge archive of magazines, flyers and vinyl is either an invaluable research tool or a bloody pain. He occasionally runs tinpot record label Dizzy Tiger, DJs sporadically and plays live even less.

    A stunning piece of theatre from start to finish, with some uncomfortable and challenging themes but also laugh out loud moments. Unmissable.
