Word of Warning — Weekly Warning

On this beautiful autumnal morning I'm taking a momentary break from theatrical darkness and technical machinations, as we at Word of Warning stand poised to finally bring Tania Camara's Oreo to an in person audience, tonight, Fri 15 Oct at STUN. Having streamed it, it still surprises me how different the impact feels IRL - it's PWYD, we're keeping to 50% capacity in the space, so do come and join us!

IRL:
Also this weekend, at NIAMOS The Untold Orchestra's Bowie: An Orchestral Rendition is on Fri 15 + Sat 16 Oct; while in Liverpool, Unity has SH!T Theatre's Drink Rum With Expats on Fri 15 + Sat 16 Oct and in Lancaster, the Duke's has Sophie's Birthday on Fri 15 Oct.
