Dennis Potter in the Present Tense

Come along to the Blue Walnut for an evening of thought provoking and whimsical music / spoken word. Headlining will be Project Adorno with their 45 min show, Dennis Potter in the Present Tense.

TV dramatist and playwright Dennis Potter was the ultimate Marmite figure – one minute delighting millions with musical plays such as The Singing Detective and Pennies From Heaven, the next causing outrage and controversy with productions such as Blackeyes and Brimstone & Treacle. In this performance piece, electro-acoustic duo Project Adorno present a contemporary interpretation of Potter, through an ambient segue of original songs, video and spoken word extracts from people who knew or had some connection to him and his work.
(45 mins)

Project Adorno will be supported by spoken word / jazz / rock / fusion madcap experimentalists Croydon Tourist Office.

Buxton Fringe review 2016:
"Project Adorno have to be admired by their tenacity and thorough research, thereby generating a unique and very enjoyable nostalgic work."
