Taboo

by Boy George & Mark Davies

15th December 2000

Workshop performance

Synopsis

The 1980’s; Margaret Thatcher rules politics, riots run through Brixton, Live Aid unites the world, the new romantics, style magazines, designer labels, and the Queen’s Silver Jubilee were fresh in the minds of the Great British Public.

Taboo brings to life a decadent decade; a vibrant era of colourful dreams, dazzling fashion, and the beginning of pop culture, as we know it today.

A love story of passion, ambition and betrayal unfolds alongside the journey of Boy George’s rise and fall from international stardom.
