The Brighton Hussy

Haunted Moustache @ Fletch

Seeing how this show was written and performed by David Bramwell, the bloke behind the Cheeky Guide to Brighton, it all makes a lot more sense now.  On the surface it was a quest to find out the history of a framed moustache that his great Aunt left him.  Really it was all about how he came to Brighton and emerged himself in the weird and wonderful side of Brighton life. 

 Starting in a cinema in the woods and finishing at the home of a Brighton character who once worked with Salvador Dali, the quest takes many strange turns.  Compare of a comedy club, neighbour of Genesis.P.Orridge and member of many a strange cult/club, Davids time in Brighton was certainly eventful.  Whether he eventually finds the owner of the moustache is a) debatable and b) beside the point.  David spends an hour or so reminiscing about the Brighton of the 90s, back when the weirdoes could afford to live here. 

This show was pert of the Brighton Fring Festival and was on at Fletch at St Andrews Church, Hove.
