The Museum of Dating (VALENTINA PERI)

Until Sunday 23 April 2023, FREE.

Online dating has only recently become a culturally and socially acceptable phenomenon, but the use of technology to match singles has a long history. In the 1960s, computerized dating systems appeared in the Anglo-American world, which worked through questionnaires and customized algorithms. The aim of the exhibition "The Museum of Dating" is to place the contemporary phenomenon of online dating within a spectrum of older technologies, practices, narratives, cultural and media artifacts.

Friday Nights Live:

The Pepper Pot: Hosted by Andrew Pepper

Brace yourselves, Brentford! ANDREW PEPPER is flying for one night only. And you'd better be hungry 'cos he's bringing a cabaret feast. Joining Pepper will be: Grand vaudevillian ADA CAMPE Winner of the 2018 Leicester Square Old Comedian of the Year Competition and in the Big Smoke for 24 hours, Yorkshire Funny Girl, Rachel Dale. Dale will be raiding her silly stable to bring you a manicured handful of barmy, bonkers and frankly baffling characters for your very own delectation. With ALEX MAYNARD on piano, and TRISTAN BUTLER thrashing it out on the drums, get ready to kick off the weekend in style.

Reflections of An Indian Dancer

Subramaniam's deeply personal and often poetic reflections on his life journey as a dancer transport the audience into the interior world of the performer, inviting them to explore not only the dancer's but also their own sense of identity.
