Not so much a u-turn as a failure to launch, our rulers' latest attempt to join Russia in the ethically elite club excluded from the European Convention on Human Rights has been put on pause. Meanwhile in performance world...
IRL:
This weekend, this afternoon, Ali Matthews's Mushroom Language is at New Adelphi, Salford. Tomorrow, Sat 18 Jun: Art Assembly's Taking Up Space, Taking In Space is at Manchester Art Gallery and Melissa Johns's Snatched is at Bolton Octagon. For the young: Family Catwalk Extravaganza (formerly Family Vogue Ball) is at Z-arts and Chrissy Jones's Shadow Girl is at Gorse Hill Studios.
Much further afield, in Bristol, there's a weekend of Wildness courtesy of IBT.
Next week (w/c 20 Jun) is somewhat dance-tastic: Humanhood's ∞ (Infinite) is at The Lowry on Tue 21 Jun; Hofesh Schechter's Double Murder is at HOME (22-25 Jun); Emergence is at New Adelphi Fri 24 + Sat 25 Jun; while Company Carpi's When you light a candle, you also cast a shadow is at Warrington Museum and Art Gallery on Sat 25 Jun.
The following week (w/c 27 Jun) Dorcas Seb is at HOME; and Greater Manchester Fringekicks off. Meanwhile, over in Leeds, Yorkshire Dance hosts the Ageless Festival, including work by Emilyn Claid, Angus Balbernie, Eva Recacha + the Royale Dancehall Flamingoes.
Online:
You can see Helena Ascough's What a clown via Word of Warning's YouTube - or if you're really in for self-punishment there's my take on the new NLPG (please subscribe, we're 5 away from getting a proper URL!)
As ever check out Lowry Digital, HOMESCREEN, MIF Watch On Demand, Unity Online, Sadlers Wells Digital Stage or CPT Digital.
Keep checking our News + Information page for more pointers to opportunities and show videos online, and @WarnMcr on Twitter for short-notice performances.
