JULIO TORRES
Rising comedy star Julio Torres brings last year’s Edinburgh Fringe smash to London’s Soho Theatre for a week from 6 August. The gay Latino funny man — a hit on Saturday Night Live — has an unusual and intense passion and his show, My Favourite Shapes, does what it says on the tin. Sitting at a table with a camera positioned above, watch as he guides you through a range of objects and shares anecdotes about them, from porcelain animals given to him by none other than Tilda Swinton, to a black brooch that has a connection to Helena Bonham Carter.
