CURRENT PRODUCTIONS
An alternative spin on progressive working class entertainment – fusing Moulin Rouge spectacle, table dancing, and new wave à la carte performance in an all singing, all dancing revuedeville. (105 mins, 7 on the road.)

One-man show from the artist formally known as The Divine David. Dealing with mental illness, drink and drug addiction, depression, HIV and Aids, and isolation – all with high camp comedy, song, dance, audience interaction and theatrical hi-jinx. In this punk-cabaret, Hoyle describes the gay scene as ‘the biggest suicide cult in history’. (75 mins approx, 3 on the road.)
