Riot LDN Summer Social x ASKING FOR IT

About

**Riot LDN Social returns for a summer social in the heart of Brixton! You can expect:** ✅ A showing of the acclaimed interactive BDSM Show ***"Asking for it***' by Posey Mehta\* ✅ Spacious indoor & outdoor seating areas for mingling / connecting ✅ Central location with good transport links (Under 10 mins walk from Brixton tube/train stations) ✅ Equipped BDSM space for impact and rope play ✅ Kink & Alternative market place including Ada Zanditon + more ✅ On site food stall **There is no strict dress code policy for our social events, however we encourage guests to attend "Kink casual" (casual with a hint of kink)** ***\* Posey Mehta is a submissive and a masochist. And they are asking for things they have no legal right to ask for. You must decide whether to give them what they want, even if that means breaking the law.*** ***In this powerful protest piece against the Spanner ruling and the Domestic Abuse Act 2021, Mehta submits their body to the audience and asks them to hurt it. What follows is a surprisingly tender, joyful, and wholesome dismantling of so many of the tired stereotypes that exist around kink.*** ***Following in the tradition of--but ultimately subverting--Marina Abramovic's Rhythm 0 and Yoko Ono's Cut Piece, this bold new piece of participatory performance art offers a window into a world where violence isn't cruelty, but care.*** ***This 20 minute showing will be followed by a short Q&A with the artist.***
