So
the easter break is over, and just to wake us all up, the political
landscape has taken yet another bizarre and perplexing shift... but WoW
is back hoping to bring some strength and stability (?!) to your social calendar, with its full Spring/Summer 2017 line-up, kicking off next Friday with Turn 2017.
Before that, this weekend in parts Mancunian, there's SH!T Theatre's Letters to Windsor House, tonight Fri 21 Apr at HOME. You can also still catch Transform Festival in Leeds (19-22 Apr) including Grace Surman's Motherload (Fri 21 Apr); RashDash's The Darkest Corners + El Conde de Torrefiel's Guerrilla (Fri 21 + Sat 22 Apr); Selina Thompson's The Missy Elliott Project (Sat 22 Apr) plus more.
Next week (w/c 24 Apr), naturally, WoW's focus is entirely on Turn 2017: 13 new northern dance works all in one night (Fri 28 Apr) at Contact.
Further afield you can see Martin Creed:Words and Music at Media Factory, Preston on Tue 25 Apr; Rachel Mars's Our Carnal Hearts at Live Art Bistro, Leeds On Wed 26 Apr; and Jamal Gerald's God Complex at Theatre Delicatessen, Sheffield on Fri 28 Apr. Meanwhile, in Lancaster the Hear Me Roar Festival (26 Apr- 3 May) kicks off with the redoubtable Liz Agiss' Slap + Tickle on Wed 26 at Lancaster Arts.
The following week (w/c 1 May) dance continues to feature with Rosie Kay Dance at HOME and Lucy Haighton in Sheffield. In other modes Thick Richard is at Contact and Nick Cassenbaum is at the HUB, Leeds.
That's your lot for now - please do come and give Turn a twirl!
