Past Thursday Lates:

Thursday Lates: Gill Adams and Da Marmi

In response to You and Me in HU3, writer Gill Adams and manouche jazz guitar duo Da Marmi will join forces for an evening with a difference.  

Writer/comedian Gill Adams will take on the role of Rita Lolita, a punter from Rayners, and chat about the strong, outrageously loveable women of Hessle Road.

Gill is a prolific playwright and has written for TV and radio. Her plays have been published and won awards, including the coveted Fringe First at Edinburgh, and she’s done all this against the odds; not least as a working-class woman from Hull.

Da Marmi are a phenomenal ‘gypsy jazz’ guitar duo. Also referred to as ‘manouche jazz’, influenced by Romani music and popularised by Django Reinhardt, this genre of music combines traditional jazz elements with lively, virtuosic improvisations.
