York Theatre Royal are generously offering discounted tickets for the upcoming play, Le Gateau Chocolat: Black.
Important and topical, Black is an intimate and confessional portrait of Nigerian singer Le Gateau Chocolat’s life: his hopes, his fears and his battle with depression. It discusses sexuality, body image and mental health to a soundtrack ranging from Wagner and Purcell to Nina Simone and Whitney Houston.
Following its sell-out world premiere at the UK’s foremost LGBT art and culture festival, Homotopia, in 2013, and a hugely successful run at London’s Soho Theatre, Black was created with funding from Arts Council England and support from Pink Fringe, Nightingale Theatre, and Colchester Arts Centre.
The cabaret legend has performed on major stages all over the world, including Sydney Opera House, Menier Chocolate Factory, Royal Opera House, and Glyndebourne Opera as well as giving show-stopping performances at La Clique and La Soiree.
