成人快手

Libby Purves meets artist Grayson Perry; musician Thomas Lauderdale; former gang member Tracey Miller and magician Drummond Money-Coutts.

Drummond Money-Coutts is a magician and illusionist. He presents a new series, Beyond Magic with DMC, in which he travels the world demonstrating his skills with card tricks, stunts and occasional cheating. Each episode recreates a historic trick or stunt. Beyond Magic with DMC is on National Geographic Channel.

Grayson Perry is an artist who won the Turner Prize in 2003 and presented the 成人快手 Reith Lectures on 成人快手 Radio 4 in 2013. His book, Playing to the Gallery, is based on those Reith Lectures. He is presenting a three-part series for Channel 4, Grayson Perry: Who Are You? The programmes focus on identity and he creates portraits - from tapestries to sculptures and pots - of diverse people who are trying to define who they are. Subjects include former politician Chris Huhne. There is an accompanying art display at the National Portrait Gallery. Playing to the Gallery is published by Particular Books.

Tracey Miller is a former gang member. Known as 'Sour', she was part of a notorious gang that terrorised areas of south London in the 1990s. After serving a prison sentence, she eventually turned her life around and is now a campaigner who urges teenagers not to follow her own path into gang life. Her book Sour - My Story, written with Lucy Bannerman, is published by Harper Collins.

Thomas Lauderdale is the founder and pianist with Pink Martini, a 12-piece orchestra from Portland, Oregon. After an early career in local politics, he founded Pink Martini in 1994 to liven up the entertainment then on the bill at political rallies. Once described as somewhere between a "thirties Cuban dance orchestra, a classical chamber ensemble and a Brazilian marching band," Pink Martini has performed its multilingual repertoire on concert stages and with symphony orchestras around the world. Pink Martini is currently on tour - UK dates include the Cambridge Corn Exchange.
