Dear all,
With apologies for cross posting and self glam promotion.
Glasgow Glam Rock Dialogues: 3 - Commune
Due to PHENOMENAL demand and following packed out shows at the CCA and Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow Glam Rock Dialogues: 3 - Commune is back for one night and one night only!
7.30pm Friday 3 March
Gilmorehill Centre, 9 University Avenue, Glasgow, G12 8QQ
The Glasgow Glam Rock Dialogues is an attempt to "perform thinking" in front of a live audience, and mixes Brechtian techniques with a glam rock aesthetic. During the performances David Archibald and Carl Lavery from the School of Culture and Creative Arts at the University of Glasgow channel the spirits of Marc Bolan and Suzi Quatro, Karl Marx and Peter Kropotkin, to approach pressing issues facing the world today. In the Glasgow Glam Rock Dialogues, the aim is not to teach but to provoke debate, whilst sporting spandex trousers and feather boas.
Glasgow Glam Rock Dialogues: 3 - Commune is a dialogic performance which takes the Paris Commune as its starting point. Carl and David will explore commune as a theoretical concept, the specificities of the Paris Commune and its lessons and afterlives, the role of radical art and culture, and then think through possible futures for communism and capitalism in a twenty-first century context.
There will be song. There will be poetry. There will be mascara.
