Following our frantic three days of dance with Turn last weekend, we're now about to hot-foot it up to Lancaster for Franko B's Because of Love today (Friday 11 May 7pm) and the Getting It Out There symposium (nb being streamed here tomorrow, Sat 12 May). Next week presents a bewildering array in Manchester. Obviously my somewhat partisan pick of the week is Word of Warning's last standalone Sampler Series of the season at Z-arts (formerly Zion Arts Centre) on Friday 18 May. But with FutureEverything kicking off and in the interests of fair play, I thought I'd do you a little week planner to take in the maximum possible, so: On Thurs 17 May Blast Theory's I'd Hide You online game (as part of FutureEverything - also on 18th+19th) and/or for a little live queer entertainment Club Wotever: Bethany Black, Joey Hateley, Rosie Lugosi, Saltylips, Ajah UK and Hooker Of course, on Friday 18th May, Sampler Series with Olwen Davies, Ellie Harrison and a touch of Canapé Art from Levantes Dance Theatre in the café bar. (Though if you really must, DV8 and Amy Lamé are also on that night too!)
And on Saturday 19th May - either Larkin' About followed by Amy Lamé's Unhappy Birthday at Contact - or DV8's Can We Talk About This at the Lowry. Hope that works for you... Lancaster here we come..! Best Tamsin
