Kirk Brandon brings his Theatre of Hate back on the road

In the 1980's Kirk Brandon formed Theatre of Hate from the ashes of heralded Punk band The Pack. Joining Kirk on vocals were notable Punk musicians Stan Stammers and Luke Rendall, along with old school friend, Steve Guthrie and Canadian born John “Boy” Lennard, who revolutionised the band’s sound with his haunting sax lines.

Theatre of Hate’s debut double A side single 'Legion' b/w 'Original Sin', topped the independent chart in 1980, and 'Westworld' their debut album, produced by Mick Jones from The Clash , held the number one position for twenty one weeks. The single taken from the album 'Do you believe in the Westworld?' has become an anthem, beng played in Goth and Punk clubs all around the World... even to this date.

Theatre of Hate imploded in 1982, but the band has resurfaced over the years to play some very special shows. They have just announced they will play five more very special shows on 10th, 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th of May, 2019. Theatre of Hate will be hitting the Crewe Westworld Weekend, and then London, Manchester, Northampton and a final date in Sheffield.
