Event Description
Fresh from a four-week run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Eastern Angles present an edgy new theatre piece entitled I ♥ Peterborough.
Joel Horwood, creator of the highly-acclaimed I Caught Crabs in Walberswick, has come up with this darkly comic show. Taking the form of a chaotic cabaret act, I ♥ Peterborough is fronted by Lulu, a big bloke with a thirty-something son, six-inch heels, a dodgy wig and a riveting story to tell.
The father and son double-act are Peterborough born and bred. Both brought up in this overlooked city best known for its brickworks, railway station and passport office. In seventy minutes their family history is laid bare.
A frenetic story of growing up in a provincial city complete with wedgies in the school bogs and heavy petting at the lido!
Written and Directed by Joel Horwood
Evening Standard “Horwood has genuine comic flair”
The Independent “I Caught Crabs in Walberswick is as sharp as a pin…exhilarating dialogue”
Contains strong language and sexual references
