warnmcr: here we go...


Word of Warning...

Here at Word of Warning we are gearing up for the full onslaught of Emergency, tomorrow Sat 5 Oct - random acts of the week include suspending 100 red apples and creating a chiffon sea...

The full schedules are now online, with the usual 'subject to change' caveat.  Kicking off from midday at BLANKSPACE there are series of durational and one to one performances in a more meditative vein, before moving across to Z-arts for a more 'show' based schedule, with durationals starting at 3pm and shows from 4pm - as ever all free.

Elsewhere,  tonight Fri 4 (and tomorrow Sat 5 Oct), The Lowry has Holly Bodmer + Dot Howard's sited Would Be Nice Though and tonight Leeds has its annual Light Night and Liverpool FuturePrimed as part of AND Festival.  Regrettably we can't make it to the other big event of the weekend - yet further afield it's also Fierce Festival in Birmingham this weekend (4-6 Oct)

Next week in Manchester there's the regular Tales of Whatever at the Castle on Wed 9.  From Thu 10 to Sat 12 Oct Ailis Ni Rian's A Shadow on Summer is at The Waterside, Sale (10-12 Oct) and the Lowry has Hannah Silva's The Disappearance of Sadie Jones (which is also at the Lantern, Liverpool on 8+9 Oct) and the ever-provocative Mark Thomas's 100 Acts of Minor Dissent is at Dancehouse on 9+10 Oct.

Word of Warning is back in action co-promoting the rumbustious RashDash's Ugly Sisters at Contact on Fri 11 and Sat 12 Oct - don't miss it, we've been chasing this one since this time last year!

The week rounds off with the annual Manchester Weekender (10-13 Oct) a chance for the city to show off what's best about its art scene!

Further afield - on Mon 7th, Lancaster is the place to be with two exhibitions at Live at LICA  (Raisin + Willow's Sea Breeze, An Archive, and the Transformed doublebill) and the really exciting pairing at the Duke's -  No Big Deal: La Petite Mort double bill featuring George Adams + Ellen Turner (winner of the Turn Prize 2013).Elsewhere, Thursday 10 Oct is a popular night with Melanie Wilson's Landscape II at Axis, Crewe and MDI presents Northern Dances at the Capstone, Liverpool.

Things to look out for the following week include - Forced Entertainment (also coming to Contact at the end of the month) and Tim Crouch & A Smith at Live at LICA;  Caroline Horton & Co at Contact; Retina Dance at Edgehill; the Skeleton Project at Stage@Leeds and Philip Jeck & Rebecca Sharp at the Bluecoat - plus, for the young at heart, the intriguing The Icebook at Z-arts.

I'm off to fret that I've forgotten to do something for Emergency - hoping to see loads of you there!
