warnmcr: the calm AFTER the Weekender storm...

Word of Warning...

Still reeling a little from last week's goings on - when I said marathon of performance I really did mean it. Huge thanks to EVERYONE - artists, audiences, venues, techs, volunteers who came with us on our Weekender journey - there was some truly extraordinary work and some downright bonkers goings-on. 

With a moment or two to draw breath, it's time to think about seeing some work. Slightly out of the normal vein, but
I have it on good authority that it's well worth a visit:  Mark Thomas's Bravo Figaro is on at The Dancehouse on 24+25 Oct (as well as various venues around the North).  It's also time for the next Mother's Ruin at Contact on Fri 26 Oct

Tonight is a good time to visit Liverpool for the Long Night of the Biennial.  And in Lancaster, Live at LICA has Ockham's Razor Not Until We Are Lost on Sat 20 (continuing til 24th.).  Axis Arts Centre in Crewe has 12˚North Dance Company's Triple Bill on Thurs 25 Oct.

At Bradford's Theatre in the Mill Northern Creative's Museum of Terrifying Example
is on
tomorrow, Sat 20 Oct.  And in Leeds, Ellie Harrison and Jaye Kearney's The Reservation - an intimate one on one - is back at The Wren's Hotel  on 24, 25, 31 Oct + 1, 7, 8 Nov. At the weekend, West Yorkshire Playhouse plays host to Furnace on Fri 26 + Sat 27 featuring sharings from RashDash and Invisible Flock amongst others.

The following week is gearing up to be immense - for the truly 'dedicated' (for which read unhinged and prepared to drive overnight diagonally across the country...like me) Spill Festival takes place in Ipswich while, MUCH closer to home, the next Word of Warning event carries on our rock musings at Z-arts of Fri 2 Nov, featuring the very marvellous Ollie Smith and Richard DeDomenici.

Hope to see you all on the 2nd

Best
