DESTROYDON

Croydon is often referred to as the Third City, and is both the third largest financial district in London and the largest borough in terms of population.

The ambition to hold city status is no secret, and is deeply engained in the Croydonian psyche. However with the prestige of city status come inherent risks - such as the potential for a destructive rampage by radioactive superlizards.

Over two Saturdays, artist Richard DeDomenici will work with volunteers to build a model of Croydon, recreating the not-quite-city skyline that would potentially attract monsters from the deep.

On the evening of Saturday 20 Nov, in a performance from the artist involving some of those who contributed to the build, our miniature Croydon will be destroyed by a herd of rampaging Godzilla-like monsters.

Sat 13 Nov 12noon - 6pm Workshop 1
Sat 20 Nov 12noon - 6pm Workshop 2
Sat 20 Nov 7pm Performance Clocktower Court Area.

Tickets are free from the Ticket Office - 020 853 1030
