warnmcr: HOME not from home...


So once more we find ourselves teetering on the brink of some kind of new lockdown - since they seem to be holding off til Monday to confirm what that might look like, you might just have to take anything about live work with a pinch of salt! Following a zoomtastic week (14 hours in one day is too much) I've been a little too preoccupied to trawl the websites, so apologies for brevity or omissions!

In the physical world, next week HOME reopens its doors to live performance on 16 Oct with Young Identity's Working from Home; while Imitating the Dog's Dr Blood's Old Travelling Show lands at The Lowry on Sat 17 Oct (also at Lancaster Arts, 20+21 Oct).
Krapp's Last Tape + La Voix Humaine (2-17 Oct) are ongoing at Leeds Playhouse; then the following week, HOME has Rash Dash's Don't Go Back To Sleep (21-24 Oct).

Online: you can catch We Dance Our History on Sat 10 Oct; Journey's Festival enters its final week (til Sun 18 Oct). CLAY's Chasm programme runs through October and November, including Ellie Harrison's Loose Ends on Fri 16 Oct, Nando Messias's Aurora on Mon 19 Oct and Jo Hauge's kiss+cry on Fri 23 Oct.  Dante or Die's User Not Found continues and Black Gold Arts Festival runs 23-25 Oct, including Cheryl Martin, High Rise TheatreMele Broomes and Travis Alabanza.

As ever keep checking our News + Information page for more pointers to opportunities and show videos online, and @WarnMcr on Twitter for short-notice performances.

As a single person household, having just tried to book a solo ticket, it's painful... so a plea to venues: we know it's hard for you, but blocks of 4 aren't selling, so please make some more single tickets available and don't add theatre to the long list of things that those of us who live alone in Manchester can't do!

I'm off to see what this afternoon's Emergency application deadline might bring! 

Best
