Dua Lipa‘s April pick for her Service95 book club is ‘Jerusalem‘ by Jez Butterworth. Dua first read this play at 15 while studying for her English GCSEs. She said: “What I love most about Jerusalem, and why I’ve chosen it as our first play, is how alive it is on the page as well as the stage. One moment you’re deep in English folklore: giants, fairies, ancient drums. The next, someone is arguing about Girls Aloud. It is funny, it is tragic and it is the best possible reminder that reading plays is not only for school.”
Dua Lipa has been announced as this year’s London Literature Festival curator. The festival will take place at the Southbank Centre from 21 October to 1 November.
