Word of Warning — Weekly Warning

In a week that saw the pruning of benefits and the severing of the limbs of quangos, the only Spring growth might be in austerity...

This weekend Verve's Triple Bill is at the New Adelphi Theatre on Sat 15 Mar. Also worth noting, Bobby Baker's An Edible Family In A Mobile Home installation runs until 20 April at the Whitworth.
Over in Liverpool, DaDaFest's DDFI40 continues until 31 Mar.

Next week (w/c 17 Mar) Manchester is very quiet but you can see Lewys Holt's 30 Minute Set at Grosvenor East, MMU courtesy of Future Flares or, but if you're looking for something a bit different and for all ages: Ray Bubbles' A Bubble Variety Show is at Z-arts on Fri 21 Mar (last seen at Social Experiment); or there's A Puppet Musical at the Birch Community Centre on Sat 22 Mar. 

Further afield, Sheffield Theatres have Dibby Theatre's Toxic on Thu 20 + Fri 21 Mar and Daniel Bye's Imaginary Friends on Sat 22 Mar.
