Wilton’s Music Hall Anthropomorphic Summer Festival
A potpourri of events is scheduled between now and the end of this eclectic festival, including classical music, ping pong tournaments and magic shows.
Expect comedy from Caitlin Moran, sound installations by Mira Calix and Anna Meredith, larger than life puppet theatre, magic shows, contortionists, circus acts, and more…
A highlight is London Comedy Festival (LoCo), presenting 'A Week of Transformations' at Wilton's, which will include live performances from illusionists, contortionists and cabaret artists, alongsidebody-swap comedy films, such as Teenwolf, Big and Freaky Friday; all presented in a weird and wonderful summer fête-like atmosphere.
Kids will be able to create their own silent comedy films during the day in our LoCo workshops.
Wilton's is the oldest surviving grand music hall in the world and has recently had its lottery funding rejected – get along there and show your support.
Franz Ferdinand guitarist Nick McCarthy will be performing a live soundtrack to a one-man puppet show rendition of The Tempest.
