Downtown New York icon Justin Bond returns to Soho with the London debut of his new show. A critically acclaimed hit Stateside 'Lustre' is a heady mix of glamour, gender queer cabaret and sexy provocation.

A Tony nominated performance artist, Bond is an Obie winner, Bessie winner and was named by Time Out as one of the UK 's 50 funniest people. As the Kiki half of the legendary performance duo Kiki & Herb, Justin has toured the world, headlining at Carnegie Hall, The Sydney Opera House, The South Bank Centre and has starred both on and off Broadway. His previous solo show 'Glamour Damage' had it's world premiere at Soho and since last appearing Justin has starred in the acclaimed John Cameron Mitchell film 'Shortbus'.

'For his latest glitter encrusted extravaganza, an eclectic collection of songs and stories about life as a trans person, Bond mixes high camp, haute couture and heady references. The effect is dizzying, riotous and unexpectedly moving ; for all his superficial fabulousness, Bond's emotional nakedness is what makes him fierce.'  Time Out New York
 'Mr Bond's fabulosity is matched by a trenchant wit, and his over the top stories are smartly edged with politics, sexual or otherwise'.
New York Times

'A glittering walk on the wild side'
