Writer Bren Gosling talks about his show ‘Moment of Grace’ showing at The Hope Theatre

This year marks 35 years since Princess Diana’s famous visit to Middlesex hospital, where she visited Britain’s first specialist HIV/AIDS Unit and shook the hands of an AIDS patient. This well documented moment preceded by stark health campaigns in the late 80s targeted at the population in response to its emergence and hopes of tackling the illness, but with it evoking confusion and fear. Inspired by this particular moment of history and his own experience of living with HIV, LGBTQ+ writer Bren Gosling presents award winning show Moment of Grace, which forms part of various events showing as part of this year’s Pride in London, a piece delving deeper into this pivotal hospital visit and the stories behind it – helping to shed light and demystify. Ahead of the production, Bren tells us more about exploring the narrative further, creating the show in association with The National HIV Story Trust (NHST) and what to expect from a post show Q&A discussion taking place on Saturday 9th July after the matinee performance which will be chaired by BAFTA-nominated TV and film producer and NHST founder and trustee Paul Coleman.

MUAK @ The Place (Festival of Korean Dance Festival 2022) Review

How we consume art is unique to us all, sounds and visuals holding with them their own special meanings and ways of making us feel. With ideas typically presented within a certain manner, Korean dance company Art Project BORA’s production MUAK challenge this. Consisting of eight performers, a piano is dismantled and with it, creates a live soundtrack through their movements – inviting the audience to see the sounds as a spectator and hear the movement as a listener.

Red Pill @ Lion and Unicorn Review

To be red pilled is for someone’s world view to be radically shifted by ideas that deviate from the mainstream. Those familiar with the concept, one which was introduced into our popular culture by 90s sci-fi classic The Matrix. With the Internet providing a means to easily access an ever growing multitude of virtual platforms, our age of forums have allowed for users to interact with one another, no matter their location and air various views and ideas. An exploration of our social media driven world and the cultural war that continues to see traditional ideas challenged by progressive ones, Blue Bar Productions’ Red Pill observes the gradual deviation from reality – the impact of extremism and radicalisation on both the individual, and those around them.
