Event Details

Tales from the council estate of dodgy best friends, that rite of passage; your first arrest, dinner with your social worker and the Christmas dad went prison.

An autobiographical performance told through storytelling, singing, rapping and a loop station.

Created by Conrad Murray and developed with Battersea Arts Centre, DenMarked explores the extent by which we are marked by events.

“Two young theatre-makers are mixing it up” The Guardian
“Raw, punchy R’n’B-infused work that adds a significant voice” ★★★ The Stage
“They bring realism, they bring heart, commitment and powerful poetic words” ★★★★ London Theatre
“Extremely inventive” ★★★ British Theatre
“Mature and relevant, with an impressive amount of soul” ★★★★ The Londonist

Location: The Galvanising Workshop, University of Kent at Medway
Time: Doors, 7pm, Show 8pm

Denmarked will be followed by an open mic session and DJ afterparty in the venue.

Warnings: This show contains content that references sexual violence/assault and could be upsetting to some audiences. It also contains bad language.
