London Stories: From Crackers to Fabric

Join Bill Brewster (co-author of Last Night A DJ Saved My Life) for the second in our series of talks about London and its sacred spaces.

This discussion will trace the development of London’s nightlife, from suburban haunts in Wembley to inner city clubs, warehouse parties, the birth of acid house and the splintering of electronic music that gave birth to drum and bass and dubstep. Finally they will alight upon Fabric to discuss the current implications for London nightlife arising from its (possibly temporary) closure.

Bill will be joined by a panel of the very best speakers on street culture: Terry Farley (dancer, club promoter, fanzine editor, producer/remixer and DJ), Fitzroy Heslop (DJ and producer)and Fabric's Shaun Roberts.

Tickets are free for members and £3 non-members.

All proceeds from our cultural programme go to the Kibera Hamlets school in Nairobi, where Second Home has funded the construction of a new school building designed by our architects Selgas Cano.
