warnmcr: spring forward...


So here we are officially in Spring -  the evenings are getting lighter and the old and tired among us will be moaning about the loss of an hour's sleep on Sunday!

This weekend sees the finale of SICK! including, tonight, Fri 24 Mar Ahilan Ratnamohan's Michael Essien I Want To Play As You at Contact; and tomorrow,  Sat 25 Mar Milo Rau's Five Easy Pieces at HOME.  Further afield, also on Sat 25 Mar Matthew Floyd Jones's Marksman is at the HUB, Leeds; or further still, over in Hull ReRooted takes place tonight and tomorrow (Fri 24 + Sat 25 Mar) at Humber Street Gallery.

Next week (w/c 27 Mar) sees no let-up at all - with Saturday being crunchpoint.  The Lowry has AAA Theatre's The Misfit Analysis  on Fri 31 Mar and Robert LePage's Far Side of the Moon on Sat 1 and Sun 2 Apr.  HOME welcomes the Viva! Festival including, on Fri 31 Mar + Sat 1 Apr Republica (Juan Carlos Otero, Keir Cooper, Lola Ruerda with Emma Frankland)and the truly extraordinary Sol Picós's One Hit Wonders also Sat 1 Apr. Also on Saturday, out at Worsley Village Library there's also an in immersive sound installation by Blast Theory. We at WoW, meanwhile will be fooling about at Z-arts all afternoon on Sat 1 Apr with the utterly bonkers Haphazard - think singing fish, sax-playing bears and the odd April Fool.  I'm sure there's a way of getting to all of Haphazard, Republica, Sol Picó and LePage - I'll let you know next week if I've figured it out!

Further afield Gary Clarke's Coal is at The Grand, Blackpool on Wed 29 Mar, Unlimited Theatre's Am I Dead Yet? at the HUB, Leeds on Sun 2 Apr and the lovely Levantes Dance Theatres's The Band will be at Preston's Derelict on Thu 30 Mar.

The following week (w/c 3 Apr) things the Easter slow-down starts, but you can catch Jenna Watt at WYP, Leeds or if you're up for a major outing, there's BUZZCUT (5-9 April) in Glasgow!

Have a good weekend and don't forget to change your clocks!
