On this traditionally ill-omened day, unpropitious
for some, time is absolutely racing by. Somehow, inexplicably, it's
mid May, it's nearly HOME's first birthday and Word of Warning is
gearing up for its very first foray thither for a one-off late, late,
late (8pm) breakfast featuring our favourite art provocateur Richard DeDomenici.
But before that, this weekend at Contact's Flying Solo you can still catch Ben Mellor's Kiss It Better + Kate O'Donnell's Big Girl's Blouse (both on Fri 13 + Sat 14 May) or at the Lowry there's Worklight Theatre's Labels, also tonight Fri 13 May.
Next week (w/c 16 May) over in Liverpool at Physical Fest, Spymonkey and Fionnuala Dorrity could be of some WoW interest. In parts Mancunian things calm down a bit but you can still catch Leo Burtin's The Midnight Soup at Sale Waterside on Thu 19 May; at the Lowry Studio there's The Wardrobe Ensembles' 1972: The Future of Sex (Fri 20 May) or 2Magpies Theatre's Ventoux (Sat 21 May) and at HOME, a double bill featuring Conker Group's Gutted and Eggs Collective's Late Night Love (19-21 May).
But of course, on Sunday 22 May you can also join Word of Warning at HOME for the event of the week - the aforementioned FREE eggs-travaganza in the shape of Richard DeDomenici + Eggs Collective's Queer As Yolk: Redux.
Part performance, part mini-film premiere - it's an (ir)reverent director's cut with a difference!
The following week (w/c 23 May) things seem a bit on the quiet side but look out for Penny Arcade at Contact;
Onur Orkut, Fest Live and Wendy Houstoun at Physical Fest, Liverpool; and Chris Dubrowski at Theater Delicatessen, Sheffield.
