scott manley hadley: Seventeen Songs About Lonely Vampires (WIP)
Club Silly - Arch 555, Arch 18 Valentia Place, SW9 8PJ
Saturday 3rd October 2026
Part of The Lambeth Fringe 2026
What is a vampire? A creature of desire and hunger, and most of all, loneliness. scott manley hadley aka SOLID BALD has never been a vampire, but they have often been alone. In Seventeen Songs About Lonely Vampires, scott performs 17 original songs that explore what it means to be a vampire, and what it means to be alone.
In this WIP performance combining alternative comedy, music, literary commentary and performance art, scott looks towards the ways in which they have failed to achieve personal goals through a non-vampiric lack of driving hunger, but also how becoming a vampire is something they fear... The eternity, the danger, the violence, the risk of the lack of love...
The show will explore specific fictional vampires and vampire lore, and contain performances of vampiric characters, and reflections and jokes about self, ageing, identity, mental illness and, maybe, desire.
There will be songs (17). There will be vampires (quantity unconfirmed).
There will probably be blood (not the film). There will be loneliness.
