On Sunday night, in a pleasant cider-haze, I stood in an industrial yard in the depths of East London surrounded by people dressed in inventive and outlandish attire. Everyone around me was singing raucously and banging makeshift drums in anticipation. A giant wicker chicken was about to be burned. I could not think of a more fitting end to the weekend.

Listening to Lady Gaga, Poker Face before the curtain went up, I was not sure what to expect. The verdict: A great compact production with just two actors performing in the first person, and as true friends, for their research Rachael and Lisa went onto the streets with a recorder to ask what their new performance should be about before devising the show. What happens is a wonderful feeling of the ‘here and now’ through using this research as living, edible source material.
