The Sunday paper: sometimes a pleasure, sometimes a challenge, sometimes a chore that lies unopened in a quietly judgemental pile until you throw it guiltily in the recycling bin the following weekend. This imaginative Secret Forum event adds a fresh twist to the Sunday ritual by turning the paper into a live experience. More than 15 speakers will each adopt a section of the papers and render reading them a performance. The world news, for example, will be ‘performed’ by enigmatic newshound Jon Snow, while Charles Eisenstein handles business and Alison Kervin tackles sport. Your columnist for the day will be ballsy Irish comedian Andrew Maxwell; ethical fashion designer Orla de Castro takes on style; and music will be covered by swing sextet Natty Cangeroo & The Flames Of Rhythm. The event is suitably set in a Cecil House living room (complete with Chesterfields) and also features a Sunday roast banquet, Bloody Marys, folk music and a real ale bar. The ticket price doesn’t include food, but you can pre-order a roast, or wing it and purchase from the food vendors on the day.
