The Beacon – Bowling Park
The Tiger Lillies
Oddball cabaret, dark humour and seriously catchy tunes from London’s legendary masters of the macabre.
The world’s foremost post-punk-falsetto-squeezebox-gypsy-cabaret trio made a very rare trip to Bradford for a one-off show at the Beacon.
The Tiger Lillies have been a fixture in the British musical underground for more than 30 years – Olivier Award-winners for the (in)famous Shockheaded Peter, Grammy nominees and much more besides.
Recently heard on the soundtrack to Johnny Depp’s film Modi: Three Days on the Wing of Madness, they’re as popular as ever – and Bowling Park had never seen anything like them before.
“One of the most unique and subversive acts in contemporary performance” – New York Times
“An extraordinary fusion of styles and sounds, creating a world both grotesque and beautiful” – Time Out
