Transformer with Jonny Woo

Saturday 6 June, 8pm

Jonny Woo brings to life this iconic Lou Reed album, backed by a full live band. Channelling the Rock ’n’ Roll Animal himself, Woo will transport you back to the 1970s New York underground. Featuring hits like Walk on the Wild Side, Perfect Day and Satellite of Love, this is part gig, part theatre and 100% pure rock ’n’ roll. Expect ‘appearances’ from the likes of Bowie, Warhol and Candy Darling. Consider this your ticket into the back room of Max’s Kansas City where rock stars and drag queens drink and get high. Be prepared to lose yourself in Reed’s dark take on glam rock.

With thanks to Bacardi.
