How to Become a Nicer Type of Person - T113159140Peter York, co-inventor of the Sloane Ranger, author of Authenticity is a Con and recovering style guru, introduces Soho Theatre to his dark, edgy and subversive idea of niceness. York's guide to navigating the rapids of modern life covers what to say, what to think and even what to wear. He deals with forbidden words ('passionate' ?'creative', 'transparent', 'journey'). Forbidden celebrities (Bono, Paltrow, Davro) and strongly advises you never to engage in 'mindfulness', 'multiculturalism', 'minimalism' or 'monetarism'. He defends the use of euphemisms whilst wielding his velvet handed scalpel at the throats of the fashionable in a show that's as far from an etiquette lesson as it's possible to get. Sometimes provocative, sometimes brutal, always sincere, can he really make the world a nicer place? | |
