About the Event
Award-winning comedian Amadeus Martin takes you on a journey through Brixton urban legends, anecdotes and observations, from the failed Viking Invasion of 885AD, the Victorian Era of 1885, and his God-fearing mother’s villainy in the 1985 riots.
God Created Brixton is a story about Amadeus Martin’s quest over a 30 year period, from a youngster to an adult to convince a Polish pen pal to set foot in Brixton, and how this was impossible due to its bad reputation.
Living in Brixton used to embarrass Amadeus, because of the negativity attached to it. But this negativity was actually driven by his ignorance of the area, coupled with the media campaign for it to be this way. But rather than wallow in self-pity he decides to mine the history books and legends for golden nuggets of this South London district, to seek the truth.
Amadeus begins to embrace Brixton for its uniqueness and architectural beauty, and realises that if you look very, very closely FIVE of the Seven Wonders of the World are actually in Brixton.
However 30 years on, will Amadeus’ Polish pen pal ever set foot in Brixton?
Amadeus Martin’s message to anyone out there who has a problem with the fantastic place that is Brixton is simply; go take it up with God, because it was God who created the place.
