Thick & Tight present Tits & Teeth; a collection of performed portraits of famous and infamous people, brought back to life through dance, mime, drag and lip syncing. Expect to be entertained by the likes of Barbara Cartland, Andy Warhol, Grace Jones – and everyone’s favourite avant-garde duo, John Cage & Elaine Paige.

Tits & Teeth celebrates high and low art in all its variety, splendour and stupidity. Thick & Tight (Daniel Hay-Gordon and Eleanor Perry) are thrilled to bring their work to RISE festival and to be joined by Harry Alexander and Azara Meghie, two stars of British dance and performance.

“a true masterclass in dance and satire” ***** The Stage.

Tits & Teeth is touring the UK and beyond, with a bespoke line-up of short works at each venue. The work in this programme is co-commissioned by London International Mime Festival and Duckie, and is supported by Arts Council England, Rambert School, Trinity Laban, Vauxhall Gardens Community Centre and Sadler’s Wells.
