...5.30: Bubblegum Cnsts: Tokyo 2040. Bold and brash show which is in your face


TABOO at The Lowry, Sal­ ford Quays.


TABOO is bold, brash and in your face - a lot like many of its characters. The play tells the story of the 80’s


music scene and the self-indulgent and flamboyant characters it bred, who rebelled against Thatcherism and the misery of mass unemployment, instead finding their expression in out­ rageous fashions and decadent nightlife. It was through this vibrant club scene that the New Romantics movement was bom. The Blitz and then Taboo - the


clubs to be seen in during the 80s - provide the setting for the play. The Lowry proves a perfect venue, with its^ intimate and modem theatre, to trans- > port the audience back in time. The production and costume designers had the look off to a tee and on entering the theatre, members of the audience were surrounded by actors posing as the club’s clientele - outrageously dressed in the New Romantics style. The first act follows 80s pop icon


Boy George, impersonated with uncanny accuracy by Stephen Ash- field, and his association with this scene - from his humble beginnings liv­ ing in a squat to becoming one 6f the most famous pop stars of the time, his drug addiction and subsequent re­ habilitation. ■We are introduced to his friends such as the extravagant Marilyn

He will also go down in pop history for barring Mick dagger from entering the club, while letting David Bowie in; :'' ■ . ■ Intertwined into this brilliant revue of the 80s, is the story of a young man called Billy (Declan Bennett) from Bromley who cannot wait to get away from grey suburbia to search for fame. In London he meets legendary club


organiser Philip Sallon (Drew Jaym- son) and through him is introduced to Boy George and the New Romantic scene. It is here that he meets and falls in love with Kim (Ashleigh Gray). However, true love never runs smooth­ ly and so we have the typical boy meets girl, boy falls out with girl and boy makes up with girl storyline. He gradually falls under the dangerous spell of Australian designer, artistand performer Leigh Bowery (Mark Lit­ tle), and betrays his new friends by


talking to the newspapers. The second act, moving from the Blitz club to the darker Taboo, sees George crashing out on drugs. Bowery dying o f Aids and young Billy knifed in a street

THE area of Western Australia, to the south of Perth, is arguably the richest source of quality wines in the whole of the continent. And this espe­ cially the case with the Margaret River region. While the size of the


crop is small in compari­ son to other areas — it rep­ resents about,5%.of the ' total Australian output - here size does not matter, it is the q u a lity tha t counts. The climate in the Mar­


garet River area is strong­ ly maritime influenced and has the most marked Mediterranean climate of all the regions. It is simi­ lar, in terms of warmth, to tha t of Pomerol and St Emilion, hence the fact this region is especially good with cabernet sauvi- gnon and merlot, but is also recognised as a pre­ mium chardonnay, semilr., Ion and sauvignon blanc = area. •. Among such revered


names as Cape Mentelle, Leeuwin' E s ta te , V a s s e ; Felix, Pierro, Alkoomi, Evans and Tate and Moss Wood is a hidden gem in the shape of IRON­ STONE.* The winery pro­ duces an array of single • grape varieties and dual ' or mixed blends from the ’ red ironstone rich vine- ’ yards which give it its name.

2002 is being reduced from £6.49 to £5.59. The zesly fresh white wine has straw golden hues leading into a fresh lemony, c itrus sy nose. The palate follows through with oiliness from the semillon and a touch of butter from the chardonnay. It is a perfect partner to


seafood, sea trout and salmon - yes, I w l l still be eating my salmon! It also goes well with roast chick­ en and spicy Chinese dish­ es. : While in Booths, pick

2002, again on offer at a £1 a bottle reduction. I have always found their wines to be of consistent quality, like Penfold's wines, and this will not disappoint. Full-bodied, ripe tropical fruits and a hint of oak - and all for for £5.99. It goes well on its own or with chicken and roasted garlic or monkfish, with a pepper­ corn sauce.Time for a treat after the Christmas spending that does not 1 break the bank.
