On Saturday the 26th May Jet, The Woodlice singer and quiff boy, will be performing in an old chip shop in Stroud in a collaboration with Ed Patrick/ Kid Carpet. The show is part of “Stroud Site festival” and Jet and Ed are fantastically lucky to be performing their show, itself based on dual identities, in an old chip shop. They were going to be in a disused railway shed but frankly “The Golden Fish Bar” right in the centre of Strouds shopping area was an opportunity too good to miss. Ed and Jet have written the show together and it’s packed full of charity shop songs and ideas. They will be performing three shows on the day and each show will be different based on what they’ve found in three Stroud charity shops. Ambitious? Possibly. Crazy. Perhaps. Entertaining. You got ya.
From 11am onwards Saturday 26th May at The Golden Fish Bar 1 London Road, Town Centre, Stroud, GL5 2AA. Look outside the fish bar for show times on the day. (NB the programme says they are in the goods shed but they have changed location to The Golden Fish Bar)
Second Hand Identity
An experimental performance
project
Saturday 26th May 11am-5pm
Brunel Goods Shed, Stroud GL5 3AP
Ed Patrick (Kid Carpet) and Jet McDonald
collaborate on a new performance
experiment. Second Hand Identity changes
with every show. Charity shops and car
boot sales are gleaned to provide all the
characters and props which are sold,
auctioned or somehow got rid of by the
end of the piece. One performance may
be about Princess Diana and located on a
chessboard, the next could be about
He-Man and set in Skegness. Somehow
the story and songs remain the same.
