Hedonism, Noi and moi

Cripes, as Boris Johnson would say. I've been invited to take part in a late night ‘speak easy’ on hedonism at the Institute of Contemporary Arts. According to the blurb, my fellow speakers on Friday 11th May include comedian Simon Munnery; Sebastian Horsley, writer and author of Dandy in the Underworld; John Noi, editor of Spektacle, a new-fashioned magazine that describes itself as ‘not for everyone but neither is good taste’; Travis Elborough, cultural commentator and author of The Bus We Loved: London's Affair With the Routemaster; Alexander Mayor of Alexander’s Festival Hall; and Sam Roddick, founder of "erotic emporium" Coco de Mer. For those who don't know, the ICA is just off The Mall. To book, click HERE.

PS. On May 17th, also at the ICA, the Straight Acting Theatre Company (above) will present "a mixture of music, theatre and live art that interrogates the queer term 'straight acting' particularly in relation to English nationalism". Now THAT I would like to see.
