Word of Warning — Weekly Warning

So cholcolate-overeating-weekend has been and gone, and hopefully with it the hailstorms.  We at Word of Warning are trying not to be too foolish and are heralding the real spring with the resonant embrace of Verity Standen's HUG at the Whitworth (Thu 7 Apr).  Whilst it's currently a real hot ticket and fully booked, keep checking our bookings page - or you can catch it on Fri 8 + Sat 9 Apr at the Harris Museum, Preston courtesy of our partners, Derelict.

This weekend FutureEverything is in full swing; or, tonight, check out Short&Sweet's Fool (1 Apr) at Victoria Baths; or gird your loins and pad your buttocks for a marathon run of Quarantine's Quartet: Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring (2+3 April) at the Old Granada Studios.

Next week, if you haven't manage to grab a Manchester HUG ticket, Sale Waterside has Chloe Dechery's A Duet Without You, also on Thu 7 April; or make your way up to Preston as Derelict springs into action (7-16 April), with a series of special one-offs starting with HUG on Fri 8 + Sat 9 April. 

The following week (w/c 11 April), Derelict continues with Glen Neath + David Rosenberg's Séance (11-16 April); and rounds off the week with the unique gastronomic experience of Zuppa Theatre's Pop Up Love Party on Fri 15 + Sat 16 April, and The Larks' Join Me on Sat 16 April. 

Over the hills in Sheffield, also check out the Wrought Festival of one-to-ones on 15-17 April.

In the meantime, there are one or two last minute opportunities for singers to get involved in HUG in Preston and Manchester - have a look here for the details (not an April fool!)

Word of Warning Spring/Summer 2016 is brought to you by hÅb
with Derelict, UCLan, the Whitworth, Contact, Dance Manchester, HOME, The Lowry + The Place.

The sun has set on our Spring, only to herald the shiny new golden dawn of Spring/Summer 2016... thanks whoever it was who unkindly said it was a reference to my own impending jubilee..!

Over the next couple of weeks things are pretty quiet for Easter - with the main point of focus being Quarantine's Quartet: Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring at the Old Granada Studios. Bookable through both Contact and HOME, you can see Summer (22 Mar), Winter (24 Mar) and Spring (25 Mar) or a marathon run of the full Quartet (26 Mar, 2+3 April).  Elsewhere, Rob Auton's The Water Show (23 Mar) and Ed Aczel's The Random Flapping of a Butterfly’s Wings (31 Mar both at The Lowry); and Short&Sweet's Fool (1 Apr) at Victoria Baths, may be of interest.

Looking ahead, Word of Warning's Spring/Summer 2016 - kicks off on Thu 7 April at the Whitworth with Verity Standen's HUG. It 'sold-out' within minutes of bookings opening, but check the bookings page on Monday evening (21 Mar) as we hope to increase capacity a bit - or you can take a quick trip to see it at Derelict (Preston - see below).
Spring/Summer is a season of twists and turns, eggs, coffee and spicy moments… We have dance in the shape of Turn - and Igor and Moreno; film, with the premiere of Richard DeDomenici's Queer As Yolk: Redux starring Eggs Collective; an explosively unpredictable quartet for Works Ahead: Terri Donovan, Afreena Islam, Top Joe and Lucy McCormick; and the return of random sprees of urban eccentricity with Hazard.

In other previews, in Preston, Derelict springs up with another wave of work (7-16 April).  Our partners in Verity Standen's HUG, you can catch it there on Fri 8 + Sat 9 April.  They also welcome the extraordinary Canadian gastronomy of Zuppa Theatre's Pop Up Love Party on Fri 15 + Sat 16 April; plus The Larks' Join Me (Sat 16 April): and Glen Neath + David Rosenberg's Séance (11-16 April).

After that look-ahead, this Warning mail is going to take a week off for Easter and will resume 'normal service' on April fool's day.  I'm off to hop a branson-express to the big smoke to lend a hand with Afreena Islam's Daughters of the Curry Revolution at Camden People's Theatre's Sprint, tonight Fri 18 + tomorrow Sat 19 Mar - so if you're in the vicinity do join us!

In the meantime, look out for our shiny gold print hitting a leaflet rack near you... or if you fancy giving us some feedback on Spring 2016, please do fill out our online survey.

Word of Warning Spring/Summer 2016 is brought to you by hÅb
with Derelict, UCLan, the Whitworth, Contact, Dance Manchester, HOME, The Lowry + The Place.
 

As the sticky white rain floats down on us, apparently it's now officially Spring... which is both meteorologically and curatorially ironic, as the end of the Word of Warning Spring season is now in view... so grab it while you can before it's just an illusion:

Tonight, Fri 4 March, you can join us for a relaxed free evening in STUN at Z-arts for a touch of magic with Vincent Gambini's This Is Not A Magic Show plus the highly-visible Top Joe. While next week, we welcome the very long anticipated and inevitably provocative Kim Noble's You're Not Alone to Contact on Sat 12 Mar.  We've been chasing this one for nearly three years, and it's here for one night only so please don't miss it!

Elsewhere, this weekend, in Leeds you can still catch Daniel Oliver's Weird Séance, at Live Art Bistro on Sat 5 Mar; and Cheryl Martin's Alaska at the HUB on Sun 6 Mar.

The following week (w/c 7 Mar), things really pick up pace again, so in Manchester, plan your week carefully:
At Contact there's Bryony Kimmings + Tim Grayburns's Fake it 'til you Make it on Wed 9 + Thu 10 Mar; and, of course, Kim Noble's You're Not Alone on Sat 12 Mar.  At the Lowry, there's Mark Thomas's Trespass on Thu 10 Mar; and at the Royal Exchange there's  Jo Fong's An Invitation (10-12 Mar).  So, to do the lot, you'll need to see Bryony Kimmings on Wednesday, Mark Thomas on Thursday, Jo Fong on Friday and finally blow your mind with Kim Noble on Saturday!

Elsewhere, Lancaster is back in festival mode with Hear Me Roar (8-12 Mar) including a work in progress triple bill with Becci Sharrocks, Stella Duffy + Maja Bugge; Mary Paterson + Maddy Costa's Monotony; the inimitable Tammy Whynot and Project O's Benz Punany. 
Meanwhile Sh!t Theatre's Women's Hour is at the Continental in Preston on Thu 10 Mar.

The following week (w/c 14 Mar) WoW type activity starts to quieten down again in the run-up to Easter; but, in more physical theatre realms there's Complicité at HOME; or, further afield, J Fergus Evans + Rhiannon Armstrong at the LBT, Huddersfield, and Mark Thomas at the Dukes, Lancaster.

Meanwhile, I'm off to wait nervously for the arrival of our magical performers - or rather their less glamorous alter egos. The lovely Debbie McGee I am not, but join us anyway tonight for Vincent Gambini's This Is Not A Magic Show. It's free (donations welcome) but it's first come, first served... so get here in good time!

Kim Noble

Spring 2016 is brought to you by hÅb with Contact, Z-arts, Sustained Theatre Up North (STUN) + SICK! Festival.

Coming soon…
HUG, Turn, Works Ahead, Hazard + the world premiere of Queer as Yolk, The Redux.

Still reeling a bit from the truly bonkers explosion of energy that was Haphazard, I'm struggling to come to terms with the fact that not only is it Friday, but also very nearly March..!

Next week, as the new month lands, so does the rumbustious Reckless Sleepers' Negative Space - at Contact on (1-3 March); whereas we at Word of Warning are on the go again with a relaxed free evening in STUN on Fri 4 Mar with Vincent Gambini's This Is Not A Magic Show plus guest artist, Liverpool's unpredictable Top Joe. 

Elsewhere, Thu 3 Mar is busy with Levantes Dance Theatre's The Band at Edgehill University and Jean Abreu Dance's A Thread at Axis, Crewe;  whilst over the weekend in Leeds, Daniel Oliver's Weird Séance is at Live Art Bistro on Sat 5 Mar and Cheryl Martin's Alaska is at the HUB on Sun 6 Mar.

The following week (w/c 7 Mar), things really hot up again with the Hear Me Roar festival in Lancaster, Bryony Kimmings at Contact, Jo Fong at the Royal Exchange, Mark Thomas at the Lowry, Sh!t Theatre in Preston
- and, rounding off the week, Word of Warning returns to Contact for the truly unmissable Kim Noble!

In the meantime, while I never thought I'd be fulfilling the role of a post-millennial Ali Bongo, please join us next Friday (4 Mar) for Vincent Gambini as nothing - or rather no one -  is quite as it seems!

Coming soon…
HUG, Turn, Works Ahead, Hazard + the world premiere of Queer as Yolk, The Redux.

Now I'm over the valentines humbuggery, we're in (slightly) less cynical mode, gearing up for the joyous mayhem that Haphazard promises tomorrow, Saturday, 20 Feb, 12-4pm... 13 free pieces bringing slapstick, beer-pump operated lights, gender-bending dinosaurs, vocal gymnastics and lots of dressing up... truly for all ages, just turn up and join us!

There's also still time this weekend to catch Reckless Sleepers' The Last Supper at Theatre Delicatessen in Sheffield (til Sat 20). While there is more theatre activity around (like 20 Stories High at Contact), the WoW-like world is very quiet indeed next week (w/c 22 Feb) - though you might consider a trip to Crewe for Guillem Mont de Palol + Jorge Dutor - #Los Microfonos (nb Igor + Moreno at Lancaster Arts has been postponed).

With March comes a bit more life the following week: Reckless Sleepers pop up again (with a different show) at Contact; Jean Abreu is at Axis, Crewe; and Daniel Oliver is at Live Art Bistro and Cheryl Martin is at HUB (both in Leeds).
Word of Warning, meanwhile, will be making a miraculous free reappearance on Fri 4 March for an informal evening of live art prestidigitation starring the mysterious Vincent Gambini and guest artist Top Joe.

In the meantime, please do join us for a rumbustious afternoon at Haphazard!

Spring 2016 is brought to you by hÅb with Contact, Z-arts, Sustained Theatre Up North (STUN) + SICK! Festival.

Coming soon…
HUG, Turn, Works Ahead, Hazard + the world premiere of Queer as Yolk, The Redux.

On this most irksome hallmark-holiday weekend of the year, individuals can hopefully still venture out without feeling too pariah-like, as Lancaster Arts has Season Butler's Happiness Forgets, tonight Fri 12 Feb; and Queer Contact comes to a rousing climax on Valentine's Day itself with Jo Clifford's The Gospel According To Jesus, Queen Of Heaven.

Whilst half-term may have little meaning to some of us, it does impact on programmes - so next week (w/c 15 Feb) is looking a bit quiet, but Aakash Odedra's Echoes and I Imagine is at the Lowry on Tue 16 Feb; Reckless Sleepers' The Last Supper is at Theatre Delicatessen, Sheffield (16-20 Feb); and, on Thu 18 Feb, Hof van Eede's Where the world is going, that's where we are going is at Axis, Crewe and Lydia Cottrell's Atlantis Preview is t Live Art Bistro, Leeds. 

The big news in parts Word of Warning is our third Haphazard (Sat 20 Feb, 12-4pm at Z-arts). From crazy-golf action-painting to a giant golden toilet, a dinosaur clothes show to a world of miniatures, 13 free live pieces from Lucy McCormick, Eilidh MacAskill + Rosana Cade, Gareth Cutter, Travelling Lights, Artizani and more. This is not live art for children but live art for everyone - just turn up and come and go as you please. 

Make the most of Haphazard as the following week (w/c 22 Feb) remains pretty quiet, though you can catch Guillem Mont de Palol + Jorge Dutor at Axis, Crewe and Igor + Moreno at Lancaster Arts.

I'm off to hide from anything cordiform and focus on rather more higgledy-piggledy art!

Coming soon…
HUG, Turn, Works Ahead, Hazard + the world premiere of Queer as Yolk, The Redux.

So we're out of the starting gates with inflatably arousing Eilidh MacAskill's STUD and there's still time to join us at Contact, until Sat 6 Feb... and maybe to catch Queer Contact's very one-off Kate Bornstein On Men, Women and the Rest of Us (tonight Fri 5 Feb).

Further afield this weekend there's also Lancaster Arts' Festival of Questions (2-20 Feb) durational programme with Tania El Khoury's Gardens Speak, Sarah Vanhee's Oblivion and Action Hero's Extraordinary Rendition (until 6 Feb); In Liverpool, the Everyman has Tom Stuart's I Am Not Myself These Days (until 6 Feb) and in Leeds on Sun 7 Feb, HUB has Harry Giles's Everything I Bought and How it Made Me Feel (also in Huddersfield at the LBT on Mon 8 Feb).

Next week (w/c 8 Feb), Queer Contact continues with Jamal Gerald's Fadoublegot and Laurie Brown's The Daily Grind (both 9-11 Feb); Debs Gatenby's A Place Called Happiness is on Wed 10 Feb and Jamie Fletcher's Dancing Bear on Thu 11 Feb. 

In Lancaster, Festival of Questions also continues with Andy Smith's The Preston Bill on Tue 9 Feb and Season Butler's Happiness Forgets on Fri 12 Feb.  Meanwhile, Axis, Crewe has Eva Recacha's My Other Life, and The Wishing Well on Thu 11 Feb.

The following week (w/c 15 Feb) is a bit quieter, but brings Aakash Odedra to the Lowry, Hof van Eede to Axis, Crewe and Lydia Cottrell to Live Art Bistro, Leeds. 

Word of Warning, meanwhile is gearing up for our third foray into a somewhat Haphazard world (Sat 20 Feb. Z-arts). Four hours of, none too serious free live art for all ages - ranging from crazy golf action painting to the return of our favourite golden toilet - plus a chance to see Eilidh McCaskill shed her chaps to adopt dinosaur guise!
But before all that please do come and join us at STUD and see that size really does matter!

Strap on the chaps and tighten your girths, as Word of Warning is about to get in the saddle for its fifth Spring Programme with Eilidh MacAskill's STUD, Thu 4 - Sat 6 Feb at Contact. Promising a full-frontal assault on gender stereotype - with a little help from the ghost of Sigmund Freud and Mr Ed the talking horse, the question is, whether size really does matter...

But before all that - this weekend, The Lowry still has Encounter's I Heart Catherine Pistachio tonight, Fri 29 Jan; and the Royal Exchange Studio has Search Party's My Son and Heir (29 + 30 Jan).

Next week, the first few days are the time to get out and about: things are hotting up in the north with Lancaster Arts' Festival of Questions (2-20 Feb) - this first week featuring, brand new, Proto-type Theater's A Machine They're Secretly Building (Tue 2 Feb), plus another chance to see Forced Entertainment The Notebook (Thu 4 Feb).  There's also a full durational programme with Tania El Khoury's Gardens Speak (3-6 Feb), Sarah Vanhee's Oblivion and Action Hero's Extraordinary Rendition (both 4-6 Feb). 

To the west in Liverpool, the Everyman has Tom Stuart's I Am Not Myself These Days (2-6 Feb); and to the east, the University of Sheffield has Selina Thompson + Bobby Baker at Invisible Flock's Autobiographical Food (Thu 4 Feb); while the same night, Stage@Leeds has Massimiliano Balduzzi's Doieb Si Tau; meanwhile on Sun 7 Feb, Slung Low's HUB in Leeds has Harry Giles's Everything I Bought and How it Made Me Feel (also in Huddersfield at the LBT on Mon 8 Feb).

The second half of the week, back in Manchester, February brings Queer Contact (4-14 Feb). This week don't miss the one-off Andy Bell is Saint Torsten on Thu 4 Feb, or on 4-6 Feb, Jez Dolan's Life's A Drag  plus the aforementioned STUD; and on Fri 5 Feb there's the redoubtable Kate Bornstein On Men, Women and the Rest of Us.

Things don't quieten down much the following week (w/c 8 Feb) as Festival of Questions in Lancaster continues with Andy Smith and Season Butler; while Queer Contact charges ahead with Jamal Gerald, Laurie Brown, Jamie Fletcher (also at WYP, Leeds) and Debs Gatenby.

So gear up and get going for that panoply of wonderment - and, as motivation I'll leave you with the immortal words of Olivia Newton-John - "tell me about it, STUD..!"
