THE CHOLMONDELEYS AND THE FEATHERSTONEHAUGHS / YUM YUM BAND (UK)
“YIPPEEE!!! (2006)” (London Premiere)

Sadler’s Wells
Fri 3 & Sat 4 November

Defiantly individual, instantly recognisable, The Cholmondeleys and The Featherstonehaughs are renowned for their unique style, character and wit.

Lea Anderson invites you to take your seats and hold onto them very firmly indeed as she presents “YIPPEEE!!! (2006)” - an elaborate Busby Berkeleyesque cornucopia accompanied by Steve Blake’s virulently infectious electro-squeak score played live and Simon Corder’s mesmeric sound-synced light show. With the allure of velour and frisson of chiffon in fabulous costumes by Emma Fryer, this promises to be a classic from the 12 members of The Cholmondeleys and The Featherstonehaughs that can only elicit the response “YIPPEEE!!! (2006)”. Not to be missed.

‘Seriously, deliciously, wayward.’
The Herald
