Time 19:30
Date 23/10/14
Price £3

A gathering of artists and their alter-egos for your entertainment and inquisition. From dragging up to dressing down, via pseudonyms and second life, artists who masquerade come out to show off.

What is it that makes an alter-ego so appealing? Whether it's Marcel Duchamp as Rrose Selavy or Cindy Sherman in one of her many guises, artists are often drawn to becoming 'someone else' or presenting a side of themselves not seen in daily life.

Featuring performances, interviews, discussion and some mental gymnastics as performers and audience flit between aliases; all are invited to interrogate the artists and their AKA personalities.

Artists to be announced.
