Unhappy Birthday, Norwich Arts Centre, 2012
Cast: Amy Lamé
Writer: Amy Lamé
Director: Scottee
Amy used to be best known for being part of the Duckie collective that ran a brilliant club night at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern on Saturdays. I went a few times and always enjoyed it. Since 2016 she has been Night Tzar for the London Assembly (current salary: £116,925 - lots of transparency from the mayor's office).
This was a show about Morrissey, who at the time I loved but since then he's become a right wing racist and it's just too awful to think about. This was a celebration. If you did a show about him now it would just be lots of shaking heads in disbelief mumbling, "why? how?".
I've seen a one man show by the director about men's bodies called Fat Blokes. I find him a bit tricky although I like the ideas behind what he does.
