⭐ EMER DINEEN, LJ PARKINSON, FIZZ SINCLAIR, ISABEL ADOMAKOH YOUNG, JACQUI BARDELANG & LIBRA TEEJAY ANNOUNCED FOR UK TOUR OF MODEST ⭐
The cast has been announced for Middle Child’s new production Modest, touring the UK and coming to Kiln Theatre this summer.
Made in collaboration with Milk Presents, Modest follows the superstar of the Victorian art scene, Elizabeth Thompson, in a riotous mash up of music, theatre and drag king swagger.
In 1874 Elizabeth stuns the Royal Academy with her painting, Roll Call. Five years later, she falls two votes short of becoming the first woman elected to the academy.
In between, she must shoulder the hopes and dreams of women across the country, while fighting for her place at a table full of top hats, ties and mutton chop beards.
Performed by a cast featuring the UK’s hottest drag talent, this electrifying new play will break your heart and start a revolution.
Starring Emer Dineen (Pecs), LJ Parkinson (Death Drop) aka LoUis CYfer, Fizz Sinclair (Mulan Rouge), Isabel Adomakoh Young (Heartstopper), Jacqui Bardelang (Sink the Pink) and Libra Teejay (When All Is Said).
Modest is written by Ellen Brammar (I Hate Alone) with music by Rachel Barnes, co-directed by Luke Skilbeck (Milk Presents) and Paul Smith (Middle Child). Featuring movement direction by Tamar and Jo, set design by QianEr Jin, costume design by Terry Herfield and sound design by Eliyana Evans.
