Iona Lott is Young and Hot
Part theatre, part life drawing Iona Lott is Young and Hot is a sexy, interactive show about getting older and trying to stay the same. Iona Lott is young, hot and fun and she wants to stay that way forever. She spends her days with strings of lovers, dancing with friends and reading and re-reading her favourite gothic horror novels. However she has a problem. Iona just can’t seem to stop aging. Lines on her face, creeping grey hairs, a hangover! She feels her life is over. When Iona reads the first half of Oscar Wilde’s A Picture of Dorian Gray she is hit with a stroke of genius. She’s inviting esteemed artists (the audience) to draw the perfect picture of her, one so beautiful she’s willing to sell her soul.
‘Funny, bold, refreshing’
‘Original and innovative.’
'Loved Iona from the start.'
