Show Pics: Taboo revived at Brixton Club House
Production photos have been released for the current revival of Taboo at Brixton Club House, which opens to press tonight (13 September 2012, previews from 7 September).
Written by Mark Davies Markham, with music and lyrics by Boy George, Taboo centres on Billy, an aspiring photographer, who
launches himself onto London’s vibrant club scene during the “decadent”
80s. He encounters many of the era’s most notorious personalities –
including Marilyn, Steve Strange, Leigh Bowery, Philip Sallon and George
himself.

Fashion” and “Pie in the Sky”.
