THEATRE

W*NKERS: The Darkness 

by Jordana Belaiche and Bel Parker 

The glorious sun has sunk into the depths beneath the horizon towards a world below. Will she ever return? Who in this moment of Darkness and Despair, this never-ceasing Night can conjure a spark of light or life? We’re not saying we can, but we sure can do a lot of digging down there in the dark with our filthy fingernails and dreadful habits and nasty unrepentant fears.

Maybe you’ve got some, too. Maybe you want to roll around in the muck with us. Maybe you’d like it. Maybe we’ll make you.   Spring and summer are gone and this is the next installment of the Seasons of W*nk for an audience ready for hilarious, experimental, Queer, feminist comedy 

5th-7th February

OUR HISTORY

The Bread & Roses is an award-winning free house right in the heart of Clapham. Owned by The Battersea and Wandsworth Trade Union Council (BWTUC) and run by the Workers Beer Company, part of BWTUC Trading, it prides itself as a pub with a social consciousness.

The Bread & Roses is named in recognition of the struggle of workers around the globe for a better quality of life. The name is taken from a song written during a strike of women textile workers in Lawrence Massachusetts, USA in 1912. 27.000 women went out onto the streets and marched for eleven weeks to improve their working conditions. Their banners called for bread and roses. A poet among them, James Oppenheim, wrote the lyrics to what became the trademark song for women trade unionists around the world. It is still sung by delegates to conclude the ICTU Women's Conference.

To find out more about the company’s ethos, celebrated proudly by The Bread & Roses, or how to fundraise with the Workers Beer Company, please visit www.workersbeer.co.uk.
