Podcast appearances and mentions of brigitte aphrodite

A lovely time with a local legend! Brigitte was on my wishlist for Something Borrowed for a while when out of nowhere I got a voice note from her asking if she could come on because she reckoned she'd be good at it - It was meant to be! Also she was 100% correct, as not only our best-dressed guest of all time, but a wonderful mix of storytelling, song, punk, vulnerability, warmth and (ethical) fireworks. Featuring singalongs, univocalisms, travel tips and of course poems, it was an absolute treat from start to finish and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did xYou can find more of Brigitte's work hereYou can come see me on tour hereYou can order my new book here

We recorded Episode 10 with our guest artist Sarah Blanc a couple of months back, when coronavirus was something we'd barely heard of here in London and before we had any idea of the impact it would have, not only around the world but on the industry we work in. In the last week a lot has changed; most of us in the dance industry have lost our work and everything feels quite uncertain. Still, as this podcast is a place for conversations about our industry and the paths we find through it, we hope you'll still find this conversation with Sarah relevant (and entertaining!) even if in a slightly different light. Enjoy the episode and let's keep talking and moving forward together. Sarah Blanc is a multi-award winning choreographer and performer. She creates solo work and is artistic director of Moxie Brawl, a fresh all female inclusive dance theatre company. Her choreographic work has toured extensively across the world and has been seen on artists and companies such as Complicite, Bryony Kimmings, Little Red Kettle along with commissions for large outreach projects led by Candoco Dance Company, R.A.D. Perth Concert Hall and Kings Cross. She is currently working with Dan Daw and Blink Dance Theatre and is excited to start a new family work based on Punk culture, collaborating with Brigitte Aphrodite and Quiet Boy. She is one third of AnnieVickySarah—a trio of collaborators who are questioning ‘inclusive’ dance practices within creative settings. Catch her on tour this year with her solo show My Feminist Boner.Rachel Elderkin is a freelance dancer and dance writer based in London. Her dance writing can be also be read in the Stage, londondance.com, Exeunt and British Theatre Guide. She is a member of the UK's Critics' Circle, and has previously written for publications including Fjord Review, the Skinny (Scotland) and LeftLion (Nottingham) where she was Art Editor.Credits:Host: Rachel ElderkinGuest: Sarah BlancEditing and production: George BushawayProduced for Fjord Review

GREETINGS FROM MARGATE!Welcome to episode 9 of Buddy’s Buddies!I trust you are great! I also assume that you are great. Don't let me down now...A proper salute to you all from here in the BP labs, what a treat to have you back! Thanks so much for joining... I'm so happy to unveil this chat this week, it was a great one - I've known Bri and Gaz for something around a year, maybe more but not a ton of time, and in that time I've been so happy to find out more and more about the creative world in which they live and - well - create! Their most recent work is the gorgeous stage show 'Parakeet', heavy on the music and very full of positive vibes and inspiring messages but with a proper punk aesthetic and really ace message running through it. But they are responsible for a huge amount more, and oh good heavens above you are about to hear all about it...So we get into all things Parakeet, which involves the initial stages of it right up to the Edinburgh run, all things My Beautiful Black Dog (their previous show) and the physical fuel which made it burn so brightly, as well as some really nice forward thinking business about education, art and the arts, culture, music influences and lifestyles, looking after one another on a small and larger scale, process, mental wellbeing, origins, young folk, politics (not too much, you're safe!) and so much more. I refuse to spoil it! Just get in there and enjoy yourself eh? YOU SHALL! Get to love Bri and Gaz!• PARAKEET LIVE at GULBENKIAN, CANTERBURY• PARAKEET LIVE at OLBY'S, MARGATEEPISODE LINKS:• BRIGITTE on INSTAGRAM!• GAZ on INSTAGRAM!• MY BEAUTIFUL BLACK DOG on BANDCAMP!• PARAKEET homepage!• KATE NASH BIGS UP PARAKEET!REFERENCES:• BOOM SHAKALAKA • BOUNDLESS THEATRE • LAURA KEEFE • ALEX NOBLE • KATHARINE HAMNETT • TRAID • PAINES PLOUGHBUDDY'S LINKS:•

The Lost Treasures Of The Black Heart is a sort of comedy club in Camden town each month, where comedians, writers and musicians write special sets venerating an unsung hero or celebrating an obscure thing. It's very rough and silly. It's compered by Josie Long, who tries out new ideas and improvises things. We hope you like it, we wanted to make it as close to the bizarre, ramshackle nature of the night as possible. This fifth episode was recorded on the 5th July 2011, and was a bloody shambles of a gig - the first 15 minutes or so are really all over the place. I hope you like it. It's got a few bits that are like prototype bits for my 2011 show, too! I seem to be in a stupid and grumpy mood, I really hope you can endure it! The guests this month are Dougie Anderson (@DougieAndo), James Acaster (@jamesacaster), Jonnie Marbles (@JonnieMarbLes), We Are Goose (@wearewearegoose), Benjamin Partridge (@benpartridge), Saban Kazim (@SabanKaz), Nathaniel Metcalfe (@natmetcalfe), The Sweet Valley Twins (@emmy_the_great), and Brigitte Aphrodite (@bbbrigitte)...
