Gigi Star and her Vocal Chords of Magic

Presented by Kit Sinclair

​

Gigi Star fled the comforts of her seaside home to take on the bright lights of London. Five years of slogging it at temp jobs, zero-hour contracts and she’s nothing but a weary fish in an overcrowded bowl. In a desperate attempt to survive and validate her place in the music world, she does something truly radical – She sells her vocal cords of magic to the Devil.

​

Simply told by Gigi with an atmospheric live score of guitars, loops and maybe a triangle.  This is a raw, dark, funny and touching poetic show that will restore your faith in the power of good old-fashioned storytelling and remind you that life is about the journey, not just the destination.
