warnmcr: winds of change

As summer seeps into autumn and some kind of new regime crawls towards the corridors of power (while the outgoing one goes kettle-shopping) it's also the time when performance is starting to wake up...

IRL:
This weekend
you can still catch Arrival Festival at New Adelphi, University of Salford, today Fri 2 Sept; and Xhi Ndubisi's The Grand Pear Supper at Lonsight Art Space (Fri 2 + Sat 3 Sep); while in Leeds there's a Scratch at Leeds Playhouse and Alex Billingham's Milk + Honey at ClAY, both tonight Fri 2 Sep.

Next week (w/c 5 Sep) Niamos hosts Chance Encounter on Mon 5 Sep; while we are pleased to be co-commissioning Wayne Steven Jackson's And Here I Find Myself at The Lowry (and online) on Fri 9 Sep.

Further afield, The LBT, Huddersfield has 999 Comments on Thu 8 Sep; Levantes Dance Theatre's Run Rabbit Run is at Harrogate Theatre on Fri 9 Sep; and Chester Storyhouse has Victoria Firth's How to be Amazingly Happy on Sat 10 Sep. Much further afield, in London, the Unlimited Festival is on at the Southbank Centre (7-11 Sep).

The following week (w/c 12 Sep) Rogue Play and Maz Hedgehog are at Sale Waterside, the Up Next Weekender is at Liverpool Unity; Derelict presents Close Encounters (of the absurd kind) in Preston and Sign Dance Collective are in Leeds.

Online:
Wayne Steven Jackson's And Here I Find Myself is streaming on Fri 9 Sep; while Unlimited presents Thirst Trap (7 Sep - 7 Oct). As ever there's Lowry Digital, HOMESCREEN, MIF Watch On DemandUnity Online + Sadlers Wells Digital Stage and the Word of Warning YouTube.

Save the date for the annual micro-marathon that is Emergency - Sat 1 Oct at Contact - and we are about to announce the artists as I write!
