21 years after it came kicking and screaming into the world, The Pitchfork Disney has come of age…

Synopsis:
Ten years ago something terrible happened to Presley and Haley. Since then they have lived alone in their dead parents’ house. But one night their safe isolation is shattered by the arrival of Cosmo Disney, who confronts them with the scariest question of all… What exactly happened to their parents?

When it premiered at London’s Bush Theatre in 1991, The Pitchfork Disney caused a sensation. With its barrage of barbaric and magical imagery, its gleaming dark comedy and catastrophic air of violence and sexual tension, audiences were left breathless, intoxicated and, in some cases, fleeing in terror.

This is an unmissable opportunity to go watch a contemporary classic.

“Hilarious and excruciating… A thrilling evening” ★★★★★ The Arts Desk
“Philip Ridley’s glittering, scary fairytale… Gets the production it deserves” ★★★★ The Guardian
“Perversely beautiful… Exceptionally crafted” ★★★★ Time Out – Critic’s Choice
“A mesmerically powerful performance from Chris New” ★★★★ The Independent
“Philip Ridley’s first play, revived under Edward Dick to mark its 21st anniversary, couldn’t be done better” The Times

STILL ADVANCE PRESENTS A CATHERINE BREILLAT VOLATILE VALENTINES DOUBLE BILL…

This young film club with an analogue fetish presents two films by the French director Catherine Breillat.

Past films Romance, Fat Girl and Bluebeard, highlight one of the most provocative and divisive filmmakers in European cinema: in Virgin and Brief Crossing, Breillat explores sexuality, romance, gender conflict and the coming of age experience through the guise of the teen holiday romance. One is from the perspective of a teenage girl, the other from that of an adolescent boy.

Virgin is centred on Lili, on a caravan holiday with her family, still realising her powers over men. Intent on losing her virginity, she latches onto an ageing playboy, but soon finds their relationship is developing into something emotionally warped and troublingly complex.

Brief Crossing charts the dalliance between Thomas and a troubled older English woman, who he meets after boarding a ferry from La Havre to Portsmouth. Knowing that they are only on board together for a short time, as they learn more about each other, the shifts in balance that occur between the two threaten to disrupt their relationship.

From one of the leading figures behind New French Extremity, Breillat turns the myths of love inside out.

“A master of psychosexual and Freudian mind-fuckery” – Little White Lies

“So fresh and incisive, so poignant yet funny, that Virgin’s coming-of-age story unfolds as if it were the first of its kind” – Los Angeles Times
