And you can too. Come join the revolution! Following on from Mowten's 2022 show: Are We All in a Cult? (spoiler alert – yes). Mowten now begins the work of deprogramming society with love. For this immense task Mowten has started a new religion, one you can really believe in: Loveinnity. Who doesn't love a new religion? Mowten is hoping this will be the spark beginning the revolution of love that, surprisingly, his regular Facebook posts haven't achieved. If you can't be part of the solution, at least be in the audience.

Mowten wants to start a religion, a religion based on love. Although love is found in some way in all faiths, his will be without legislation, as he notes that it's the rules around observance and how to practice that drive division—the antithesis of love.

Mowten wants us to love unconditionally, without motive or agenda. The kind of love that is not an action, rather it is the foundation of all connection between people.

Part stand-up manifesto, part discussion group, he makes an excellent claim for the convenient inversion of God is Love to Love is God. However, Mowten is not some hippie idealist (though his musical references might suggest otherwise), nor is he convincingly starting a cult (though the existence of this and his previous work might suggest otherwise).

Instead Mowten quite rationally sets out the argument that genuine love has been suppressed and subjugated to the point that to advocate for it would appear to be revolutionary, even though it's the one thing we all want and need in life.

Insightful and genuinely funny, Mowten’s ambitious project needs to reach significantly more people than the Games Room in the back of the Brass Monkey if he is to be successful in his mission. I’d heartily recommend going along and signing up (in an entirely non-legally binding way) to Lovinnity. I'm certainly game! Click Here For Review
