Spoken Word, Storytelling & Circus
with Felix Orlo 29th Feb at Margate Arts Club,
She doesn't want to be a Goddess.
She wants to be a Gobbess.
Storytelling and poetry combine with aerial, circus and music to tell a kaleidoscopic story of rage and becoming. This is one person’s search for lightness and depth amongst creativity and cat-calling.
Naomi Wood is a multi-disciplinary performance artist specialising in aerial arts and spoken word. She brings the two together to tell her personal story on the nature of creativity and identity, of queerness and self-expression in the social media age. Her work covers consent, the weirdness of human habit and why sometimes we should just embrace being rubbish.
Naomi is joined by Felix Orlo. Felix is a queer performance poet, comedian, writer and bad musician. She’s worked with National Film & TV School and Soho Theatre but mainly does silly little shows down South. She can tolerate both gluten and prawns but definitely not the softer cheeses. Check out her first collection of poems, 'Burger Girl’, full of nonsense, lolz, and underlying heartache, printed with Spun Press and find more of her guff online @felixorlo.
