For the most alternative, eclectic and arty Halloween happening in London for mere mortals here be The Mother Wolf Club's 'Til death do us party!'
This ain't no braindead bash, moving smooth as blood between spoken word, interactive poetic cabaret, live beat-looping, blistering bands and deadly DJs.
With scarily good drinks promos on 'The Eyeball Highball' and 'The Neck Romancer', The Post Bar offers the most yuck for your buck til 4am!
Hot off their summer festivals tour The Mother Wolf Club surely know how to curate and hold a great party hosted by John Swale, 'the best compere there is' (Jon Corbett- Secret Garden Party).
Here's the lineup;
BBC Asian Network's DJ Bobby Friction- He's an international Radio personality, curates his own area at Glastonbury and for one night only he offers his heart pumping (at 120bpm) on a plate for you.
The Petebox; Former UK No1 Beatboxer fuses live looping with interstellar song-writing making him a 'must see' (The Guardian) international festival favourite from Glasto to SXSW.
DJ Chris Tofu - He has MBE in event making, runs his own stages at 20+ festivals, the godfather of the vintage remix...Tofu could get festival going in a funeral home.
Joe Carrick-Varty - Winner of the Eric Gregory Award (2022), New Poets Prize (2018) and Shortlisted for the T.S Eliot Prize Joe's poetry blends the personal with the universal in an uplifting style as strange as eyeballs to kick off the party with heart.
Down Boys- Described as 'if Moondog had taken over The Fall' and with songs with titles like 'The day I found a human hand' these guys fit in on the lineup like a corpse in a Ballardian fantasy pileup.
Spike Zephaniah- Backed by his band 'The Shades', the puppeteer/monster maker/illustrator and his undead alter egos hold three interactive cabaret shows; 'End of Life Drawing' with Bob Rott, 'Pick my Brains' with Mortimer Redgrave and 'Epitaphs to make 'em laugh, goodbyes to make 'em cry' with The Grime Reaper.
Tim Ethereal's Trip Machine- 'Turn off your mind relax and'...sit in Tim Ethereal's trip machine. 12 hours of trip compressed into three minutes at your leisure and control.
