CVNTCLAVE
Preview · Fri 7 Aug – Sun 9 Aug2 for 1 · Mon 10 Aug – Tue 11 Aug16+
A one-Cardinal-show exploring power, faith, hypocrisy and how much tea that cup can hold before it runneth over. Inspired by the hottest film of recent times: Conclave. But queer(er). During conclave, cardinals are locked inside the Vatican together to elect the next Pope. It's a spiritual gathering. It's not a war – all the fighting has to be invisible. Enter the confessional of Cardinal Cvntvs, who wouldn't dream of plotting to take down his competitors, because Cvntvs' Vatican is definitely not an endless repository of salacious queer drama, petty squabbles and psychosexual, above-tepid rivalries. Nope. This is serious shit.
