PREVIEW: BodyMap @Brighton Spiegeltent: Bosco

May 19, 2018

Is the road to self discovery still on the map?

THIS is what happens when an original 80’s punk makes it through the vortex into 2018. More Anarchy, Bingles and Chaos than you could poke a selfie stick at.

Every ‘body’ has untold stories and BodyMap plays host to a curated navigation across the body of Australia’s most celebrated Queer performance artist, 90’S Club-kid ‘it girl’ and freak flag flyer Glitta Supernova.

Direct from Sydney, Australia, the worlds original sex clown Glitta Supernova shares her Hyper gendered, Hyper sexual & hyper realism in a celebration of the sacred profane in all its spiritual, sexual and personal glory.

A total 6 nominations and 3 awards including winner Best in Fringe 2017, Best Cabaret 2017 and Most Outstanding Performer. Tap into the tail end of the massive 12 month sell out tour across Australia and New Zealand with the BodyMap bordello bus body slamming into Brighton Fringe for a UK first for 2 nights only.

Sharp cuts, suspenseful truths and satirical tales that explore the corporatisation of our bodies. The rules, roles and collective unease some of us have about the new world order. Navigating who we are has never been tougher, access is blocked with the promise of beauty and perfection. The personal highway to our soul is in multilane gridlock, diversions from the self at every exit.

Psychedelic, Satirical, Personal and Political storytelling that’s packed to the rafters with puns, punches and possibilities. BodyMap is deep dive across the consumer bordered planet and into our inner being, highlighting our capacity to transform despite the odds.

As one of Australia’s key under culture shakers and creator of Australia’s 1st Burlesque Club, Gurlesque ‘Lezzo Strip Club’ (1998- 2010) Glitta’s working class Dutch roots and a consistent anti-establishment message set the tone for a show that’s wanting to reach in and shake your soul memory up.

♦♦♦♦♦ An audacious, hilarious and sharply political show. Don’t miss it!…..Theatreview
