As
the chill deepens and the remaining leaves turn colour, the 'treacles
amongst us are starting to return to our natural dark enclosed
habitats...
This weekend in Manchester you can catch Gecko Theatre's The Wedding and Gary McNair's Letters to Morrissey (both at HOME until Sat 16 Sep) or for the more theatrical: Paines Plough's Growth is at The Edge Theatre, Chorlton on Sat 16 Sep. Over in Leeds Furnace Festival (11-23 Sep) has Daniel Bye's Instructions for Border Crossing on Fri 15 + Sat 16 Sep.
Next week (w/c 18 Sep) Furnace continues at West Yorkshire Playhouse with Transcreative's You've Changed on Tue 19 Sep; Nic Green's Cock and Bull on Wed 20 Sep; and RashDash's Two Man Show on Thu 21 + Fri 22 Sep (which is also at the Royal Exchange the next evening, Sat 23 Sep). For something a bit different, Contact is metaphorically taking to the terraces with We're Not Really Here (20-23 Sep); while AND Festival (21-24 Sep) is exploring the depths of Castleton: Waterlicht, Heavy Metal Detector; Listening To The Dark tour and Evening Event caught my eye. On an altogether more intimate scale, Conor Aylward's Learning To Swim On An Ironing Board is on Sat 23 + 30 Sep in the Redbricks, Hulme.

The following week (w/c 25 Sep) things really pick up pace in Manchester. Of course in parts Word of Warning, there's a frantic burst of activity with both Jo Bannon and Emergency 2017. Elsewhere Contact has Sean Cernow and Mother's Ruin; while Jackie Hagan is at The Royal Exchange Theatre; and HOME kicks off its Orbit Festival (28 Sep-15 Oct) with Scottee, Greg Wohead Hurtling and The Backseat of My Car...
Have a good weekend - I'll be in techie-world, with 26 meetings and skypes in preparation for Emergency!
