Thanks to all who joined us at a right-rollicking Emergency last weekend... we're still buzzing (though that might be the residual adrenaline of 41 shows in two weeks!)
While Word of Warning has a show-free week or two, audiences should be girding their loins as Autumn is truly in full swing!
This week you can still catch Zendeh's Cinema (until Sat 10 Oct) in STUN Studio at Z-arts; 1927's Golem at HOME (until 14 Oct) and Contact Young Company's Under the Covers, (until 10 Oct) at Contact. Looking east, Bradford's Theatre in the Mill has The Other Way Works' Black Tonic (until 11 Oct); and West Yorkshire Playhouse has Furnace Festival (until 10 Oct). Further still there's Fierce Festival in Birmingham (until 11 Oct), with Chris Goode, Neil Callaghan & Simone Kenyon, Selina Thompson, Katherine Araniello, Ria Jade Hartley, Ursula Martinez, Season Butler, Tim Etchells; plus, on Sun 11 Oct, Hatch: Blood, Sweat and Tears at the Attenborough Arts Centre (formerly Embrace Arts) Leicester (booking link here).
Next week on Mon 12 Oct the LBT in Huddersfield has Dumbshow Theatre's Electric Dreams (also at The Lowry on Sat 17 Oct). On Tue 13 Oct Stan's Cafe's A Translation of Shadows is at Axis, Crewe and Rash Dash's We Want You To Watch is at West Yorkshire Playhouse (13-15 Oct) (also at The Lowry, 22/23 Oct). Meanwhile Preston pubs are popular - with the one-off Drunken Nights IV: Appetiser at the Lamb & Packet on Thu 14 Oct, courtesy of Derelict; and Andy Smith's The Preston Bill at The Continental (14/15 + 21/22 Oct). I've also, just this second, been recommended Encounter's I Heart Catherine Pistachio at Axis, Crewe on Fri 15 Oct.
The following week (w/c 19 Oct) reaches crescendo: amongst other things... look out for Forced Entertainment at Contact; Quarantine at Lancaster Arts (formerly Live at LICA/The Nuffield); DV8 at West Yorkshire Playhouse ; Ricardo Buscarini at Axis Crewe; and Grace Surman at Bradford Theatre in the Mill. It's also festival time - with On The Verge in Liverpool; Encounters in Warrington and Black Gold (feat. Cheryl Martin, Darren Pritchard, Keisha Thompson + Chanje Kunda) at STUN at Z-arts - which also sees Word of Warning re-enter the show-fray with the première of Darren Pritchard's Body of Light.
I'm exhausted just writing that lot, I'm beginning to think seeing shows is harder work than producing them! Maybe we should see who can get the prize for actually seeing the most?!
