The UK's answer to Maupin's, Tales of the City.' Cloud Nine takes
us on a brave, breathless and bawdy romp through a world of gutsy
glamorous drag queens, and cut throat gangsters. When the world has
turned its back on you, there is one place you can go to find
family, Cloud Nine. The newest nightclub on London's South Bank and
the epi-centre of a new purposely built gay village. Its creator,
one time international drag star Trixie Lix; queen of the village
and Momma to all that work there. There's Tye from Birmingham, the
thirty something manager who's starting a new life after the
homophobic murder of his life partner. Then we have Alf a six foot,
Afro-Caribbean lovesick doorman. We also marvel at the ageing foul
mouthed cleaner, Joan, who is fiercely protective over her friends
and the family at Cloud Nine. The latest of the Cloud Nine family
is Mickey, a troubled teenager trapped by his gangster father,
Jimmy Loney, into a life of violent crime and sexual abuse. We also
get to meet the sharp wit of Lady Alice Nana Love' Lovett, the
anti-establishment Lady of Little Munch, and her vengeful niece
Lady Victoria. Families can be formed in the most unusual of
places, Trixie and her family at Cloud Nine take us on an
explosively funny journey, with more plot than a vegetable garden,
their story will make you laugh and cry, but will definitely make
you want to visit....
