Class
Overview
Award-winning artist Scottee was born homeless into a single parent family. Growing up in the 90s, on a North London council estate, he was surrounded by other kids like him. But after a chance meeting with some posh kids from the other side of the tracks Scottee knew he didn’t want to be common and set about trying to forget his past.
In this his final autobiographical solo show Scottee uncovers what it is to be embarrassed about where you’re from, how you can pretend to be posher than you are and why you should never answer the door.
This is a show for the middle classes.
