Cushion Collective in front of the Bethnal Green Working Men's Club heart.

Cushion Cabaradio

In the latter half of 2015, I presented, produced, and edited Cushion Collective’s monthly radio show, Cushion Cabaradio, on Roundhouse Radio.

I was joined by my Cushion comrades Scarlett Lassoff, Jasmine Shigemura Lee (All That Jazz!), Fauve Alice, Hannah Davis, Polly Beck, Felix Huxtable, Sophie Wakefield, Chris and the Celeriac, and Billy Hicks, with jingles from the gang by Celyn of Gwent, and the show featured chat along with stand-up, live music, spoken word, improv, musical comedy, sketch, impressions, and poetry, plus the Cabaradio faves Made in Chelsea: L(ive)A(rt) and Abramob*tch: The Live Art Burn Book, and a variety of tracks too.

Cushion Cabaradio was included in the fifteen-minute entry with which Roundhouse Radio won Best Grassroots Production at the Radio Production Awards 2015. All six episodes are available below on Mixcloud, with the first three also below on SoundCloud.

And, as a little bonus, scroll to the bottom and listen to Zola Gorgon’s radio show on Keith F’em, when I guested along with Celyn of Gwent while in Berlin, bringing our Frenemies show to the airwaves!
