Duckie: The Super Rich Versus the Super Poor
Saturday 18 July, 10.30pm - 3am
Cabaret Tent at Latitude 2015
Hosted by the Fabulous Russella with Disc Jockeys Readers Wifes
Starring Lucy Muck, The LipSinkers, Jennifer Coleman,
Cheryl Dole, Derek McCluckie and the Duckie DHSS All Stars.
This might be Latitude but there are no middle classes here - just the super-rich and the super-poor.
As the neo-liberal agenda continues to divide and cut our country up, Duckie takes on the haves, the have-nots and the have-yachts.
Join the fat cats and the street urchins in a role-play, a dress up, a Tug of War and a few rounds of The Price is Right.
Presenting performers on zero-hours contacts, DJs having their benefits cut and blood on the dancefloor.
It’s a new Weimar republic in the queer year of torycore-twenty-fifteen - with well-heeled cabaret, bankrupt performance art, decadent dance and destitute drag.
Plus rocking to your favourite laissez-faire pop music because money make the world go around, the world go around, the world go around…
Featuring a shoe shine stall, a cigar emporium, a soup kitchen and a bank.
Latitude this year also features Portishead, Alt J, Manic Street Preachers, Young Fathers and John Cooper Clarke.
