SHLOMO: Mouthtronica
Purcell Room at Southbank Centre
Tuesday 13 December 2011 – Thursday 15 December 2011, 7.45pm
BUY TICKETS

I’m knee deep in preparations for my one-man theatre show Mouthtronica running at London’s Southbank Centre for three nights on December 13-15 2011. I haven’t done the show since Edinburgh Fringe Festival where it was completely sold out for 4 weeks, got 5 star reviews and was nominated for an award. No pressure then!

It’s a really fun show where I tell the story of how I became a beatboxer. And make lots of very loud bass music using only my voice. And perform a spontaneous collaboration with a different guest musician each night. It’s gonna be ace.

If you haven’t bought your tickets yet, fear not for you can WIN TWO TICKETS for a night of your choice.

All you have to do is watch this video, and answer the questions below by 5pm on Monday 5 December.

Hedsor 2011 is proud to continue our support of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and every penny raised will go to their emergency programmes throughout the world. MSF is one of the leading charities helping with the East Africa Famine currently and was one of the first charities into Misrata and Fukushima. The inaugural Hedsor 2009 raised enough to vaccinate over 72,500 children against measles, protecting them from a disease that kills over 190,000 children each year, and this year we plan to smash that target.
