SUMMARY:Artistic Directors: Icons of Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Step inside Bloomsbury Publishing as we host a fascinating discussion on the impact that artistic directors have on our conversations\, opinions and\, most crucially\, on our culture.\nJoin us as Christopher Haydon – author of The Art of the Artistic Director and former artistic director of the Gate Theatre – talks openly to Dan Rebellato about the impact that directors of then and now have essentially contributed to what’s being discussed politically\, socially and historically in today’s theatre. These titans of culture and influence have often set the agenda through programming that inspires meaningful engagement around the biggest issues of their time. \nChristopher has compiled an insightful set of interviews to create The Art of the Artistic Director that expose the heart of what it is to occupy this unique role and he’ll be sharing what he found out with us. The ticket price includes a free glass of wine before the talk and a copy of ‘The Art of the Artistic Director: Conversations with Leading Practitioners’ by Christopher Haydon.

Star actor Tom Hanks has narrated the audiobook\, and Sunday Times Literary Editor Andrew Holgate says ‘If there’s a better\, more poignant or involving novel than The Dutch House published this year\, I will be very\, very surprised’. \nDon’t miss out on your chance to get a copy of The Dutch House two weeks ahead of its release – and to meet one of the most powerful\, wise and witty voices in literary fiction today.

SUMMARY:This Poo Shall Pass
DESCRIPTION:Molly’s on the toilet\, and she’s written about it. Share in her scatalogical agonies\, wallow in her bodily woes\, and discover her darkest secret: her Google search history. \nThis Poo Shall Pass is a funny and grotesque one-woman show about the role of the body in public and private storytelling. Featuring witty spoken word poems interlaced with snippets from Molly’s archive of strange Google searches\, this brand new show explores the oddness of bodies through the lens of Molly’s identity as a transgender woman\, testing the boundaries of public and private in surprising\, and sometimes uncomfortable ways. And for half of it\, Molly is sitting on the loo. \nJoin us for an evening of poetry that picks at the bits your Mum told you not to pick at\, gets up close and personal with the stuff underneath your fingernails\, and asks all questions you’ve ever been tempted to\, without resorting to incognito mode.

SUMMARY:Adjust the Procedure
DESCRIPTION:Spin Cycle in association with JCS Theater Company presents The World Premiere of ADJUST THE PROCEDURE\, a new play by Jake Shore (The Devil Is On The Loose With An Axe In Marshalltown\, Holy Moly\, and Down The Mountain And Across The Stream) conceived during the pandemic and created with Zoom theater in mind. It’s early Fall 2020 and the pandemic consumes a Manhattan university. In addition to tracking rising cases of COVID on campus\, the school’s administrators face immigration problems\, suicide threats\, and professors losing their minds. But in the midst of all the madness\, it’s the internal bureaucratic battles that threaten the school’s preservation. \nOver the course of two conflict-ridden Zoom meetings\, ADJUST THE PROCEDURE gives audiences a rare peek into the business of higher education at a moment of multiple reckonings. “A couldn’t-be-more-timely play.” — Derek McCracken\, BroadwayWorld “As this play questions whether it is easier to ADJUST THE PROCEDURE or adjust reality\, it forcefully reminds us ‘When someone dies\, there are consequences.’ \nA timely play for troubled times. Well worth watching.” — Laurie Lawson\, Electronic Link Journey “Smartly tailored to its theme and era\, and the direction and delivery of its thought-provoking narrative pack a punch and leave us wondering what really drives our educational system and who benefits the most from it.” — Deb Miller\, DC Metro Theater Arts Written and directed by Jake Shore\, ADJUST THE PROCEDURE stars Ed Altman\, Adam Files\, Meagan Moses\, and Nicholas Miles Newton.

SUMMARY:Benin City\, Burning
DESCRIPTION:In February 1897\, British troops launched a ‘Punitive Expedition’ on the Kingdom of Benin\, swiftly and violently destroying much of Benin City and pillaging thousands of royal artworks and sacred objects. Many of the Benin Bronzes are now in the British Museum; the rest are scattered across Europe and America in private collections and museums. The Edo people have requested these artefacts back but most of the museums have staunchly refused. \nPoet Inua Ellams\, who hails from Benin City in Nigeria\, will read his poem sequence Fuck/Empire\, about one such artefact\, a tusk\, now housed at the Manchester Museum. He will then be joined by Nigerian artist Victor Ehikhamenor\, Pitt Rivers Museum Curator and author of The Brutish Museums Dan Hicks and Manchester Museum Director Esme Ward in conversation with writer and broadcaster Afua Hirsch to discuss the history\, the legacy and the thorny issue of restitution. \nIn partnership with Penned in the Margins. \n— \nVictor Ehikhamenor is an artist\, photographer\, and writer born in Edo State\, Nigeria\, whose politically motivated works are influenced by the duality of African traditional religion and the interception of Western beliefs\, memories and nostalgia. He has had numerous solo art exhibitions across the world and is a Trustee of the proposed Edo Museum of West African Art. \nInua Ellams is a Nigerian-born\, UK-based poet\, playwright and performer who has written for the Royal Shakespeare Company\, the National Theatre and the BBC. His latest play was an adaptation of Chekhov’s Three Sisters set in Nigeria\, staged at the National Theatre. The Actual his fifth poetry release\, and first full collection was published in 2020 by Penned in the Margins. \nDan Hicks is Professor of Contemporary Archaeology at the University of Oxford and Curator at the Pitt Rivers Museum. His award-winning research focuses on the restitution of African cultural heritage from Euro-American collections\, focusing on the place of ideas of cultural whiteness in ongoing histories of colonial violence. His most recent book is The Brutish Museums. \nAfua Hirsch is a writer\, broadcaster and former barrister. She is a columnist for The Guardian\, writes for magazines including VOGUE\, Time and National Geographic and her book Brit(ish): On Race\, Identity and Belonging was a Sunday Times bestseller. Her documentaries have included African Artand Enslaved and she has worked in development in West Africa and in international human rights law at the bar. \nEsme Ward is Director of Manchester Museum and the first woman to hold the role in its 125 year history. Prior to this\, she was Head of Learning Engagement at Manchester Museum and the Whitworth. Together with Manchester Literature Festival\, she commissioned Inua Ellams’ poetry sequence responding to the Benin Tusk in the Manchester’s Museum’s collection. \nPenned in the Margins is an award-winning small arts organisation producing new work live\, in print and online. \nInua Ellams’ The Actual can be ordered from Penned in the Margins \nDan Hicks’ The Brutish Museum can be ordered from Pluto Press with a discount which you’ll receive you’re your event ticket purchase. \nN.B.

SUMMARY:Singing With Nightingales: Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the return of the nightingales to UK shores with this special late-night live broadcast. \nHosted by folk singer Sam Lee this audio broadcast\, live on Youtube\, will take you on a journey into the woods of Sussex to hear the unforgettable song of the nightingale. \nWe will then weave in contributions from invited guests for improvised duets and poetic offerings with the nightingales\, bringing the magic of music and nature to you in the comfort of your own home. \nThis live broadcast will be available for free on Youtube. \nEach year\, for a short period mid-April\, a few thousand nightingales fly to southern UK from Africa. They can be heard in just a small number of special locations\, taking up songful residence after dusk. The territorial males serenade loyally each night for no more than six weeks among the blackthorn and forest margins\, giving unbelievable privilege to those who know where to go. \nOn 14th April we will mark this occasion by listening to possibly the first singing nightingale of the season\, with Sam Lee microphone-ready at their reliable Sussex habitat. \nWe will be inviting contributions from the public to be played on this broadcast alongside the nightingale’s song – details for this will follow in the next few weeks.

SUMMARY:Singing With Nightingales: Dawn Chorus
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day with this long-form live broadcast of birdsong and spoken word. \nJoin The Nest Collective online from 11pm on 1st May for a spoken-word journey\, hosted by Sam Lee\, through some of the finest poems and writings celebrating the nightingale\, the wonder of birds and the natural world. \nThis long-form broadcast will then drift into pure nightingale song through the night and\, as the birds rise\, will culminate in the dawn chorus itself\, finishing at 6am on Sunday 2nd May. \nThis live broadcast will be available for free on Youtube. \nWe are delighted to announce the contributors for this broadcast include: \nCaitlin Moran • Stewart Lee • Satish Kumar • John Lewis-Stempel • Jackie Morris • Rob Da Bank • Anita Sethi • Melissa Harrison • Mark Avery • Merlin Sheldrake • David Lindo • David Rothenberg • Mya-Rose Craig • Patrick Barkham • Farhana Yamin • Mary Colwell • Genevieve Tudor • Jay Griffiths \nInternational Dawn Chorus Day is the worldwide celebration of nature’s greatest symphony. All across the world people rise early to enjoy the sound of birdsong\, ‘from rattling wrens in Rotherham to crooning cowbirds in the Caribbean’. \nEach year\, for a short period mid-April\, a few thousand nightingales fly to southern UK from Africa. They can be heard in just a small number of special locations\, taking up songful residence after dusk. The territorial males serenade loyally each night for no more than six weeks among the blackthorn and forest margins\, giving unbelievable privilege to those who know where to go. \nIn this modern age\, with biodiversity in decline and habitats being eroded\, the nightingale has become representative of all that we have to lose. It is a small\, brown\, unremarkable-looking bird\, but it possesses one of nature’s finest singing voices. The bird winters in Africa but spends April to July mating and nesting in Europe and the Middle East. The numbers visiting England have declined so sharply that it is now on the UK’s Red List of species at the greatest conservation risk.

SUMMARY:Luke Wright: The Ballad Seller - Poetry Show
DESCRIPTION:Luke Wright\, winner of Best Spoken Word Performer at May’s 2021 Saboteur Awards\, has based his 11th full-length poetry show on bawdy Georgian street ballads and takes it to London’s Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club at 7.30 pm on Wednesday 14 July as part of an extensive UK tour. The show will also celebrate the limited edition book of the same name\, which features illustrations by The Guardian’s chief political cartoonist Martin Rowson. \nBack in Georgian times\, we got all our news from poetry. Before newspapers\, broadcasts or the internet\, ballad sellers would hawk broadside ballads on street corners for a penny. Scandalous affairs\, grisly crimes\, and colourful characters were brought to life in rhyming verse long before the first tabloid was printed. \nWright\, hailed by The Independent as ‘One of the funniest and most brilliant poets of his generation\, has rewritten the very best of these stories for the modern ear. So take a trip through Drury Lane gin shops with the Boxing Baroness; filch oysters by the dozen with celebrated gormandizer (glutton) Dando\, and escape the Bull Ring with Jemmy the Rockman. Expect scandal\, excess\, and beautiful\, flawed humanity. \nLuke says: ‘These days\, we associate the word ‘ballad’ with a kind of slow\, syrupy song\, but traditionally it meant a narrative poem or song. For hundreds of years\, ballads were the backbone of the average Briton’s cultural experience. By the 18th century\, the most gossipy\, salacious news stories were written as ballads and sold in their thousands. Frankly\, the quality of the verse was pretty awful\, but the characters brilliant. In this show\, I’ve brought those characters to life by extending the ballads and giving their stories space to breathe.’ \nLuke Wright is one of Britain’s top stand-up poets. Flamboyant\, political and riotously funny\, Wright’s inventive shows are enjoyed by thousands of people worldwide every year. Praised by Patti Smith for his ‘cool poems’\, he is the author of three full collections\, three poetry pamphlets\, and three verse plays. He has won a Fringe First\, a Stage Award for Acting Excellence\, and three Saboteur Awards. The Guardian said\, ‘His performances rumble with rage\, passion and humour\, peppered with brilliantly smart observation’. \nHe is a regular tour support for John Cooper Clarke and MC for The Libertines (frontman Carl Barât is a big fan\, describing him as ‘One of the greats. A poetic pugilist was recently dubbed ‘the bard of lockdown’ by The Daily Telegraph after his marathon stint of 100 consecutive nights of online shows. \nThe Ballad Seller will tour throughout 2021. Luke is also touring his third verse play The Remains of Logan Dankworth and his newest collection\, Come! Come on! Meet me!. \nhttp://www.lukewright.co.uk \nLondon listings info:\nLuke Wright: The Ballad Seller\nMulti-award-winning poet updates the scandalous\, bawdy and colourful Georgian ballad storytelling style for the modern ear in his eleventh full-length poetry show.\nLondon Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club\, 42-44 Pollard Row E2 6NB\n14 July £12 7.30 pm 0207 739 7170 http://www.workersplaytime.net

DESCRIPTION:The world premiere of a brand-new dark comedy from the award-winning ChewBoy Productions\, coming to the Lion and Unicorn Theatre July 2021.  \nSans and Moins are getting saved. The ‘Creators’ have told them so\, and they’re very excited. Adequately excited. Kind of excited. As it’s not the first time they’ve got a message like this\, and the real question is\, will it be the last? TETHERED is a brand new darkly comic surreal play dealing with hope\, loss and the reliance we have on others. TETHERED explores whether or not we can truly understand one another\, and how far we would go to keep ourselves sane when trapped in one place for too long… \nChewBoy Productions are Associate Artists of the Lion & Unicorn Theatre. \nPRAISE FOR PAST WORK\nWINNER – IYAF’s Best of Brighton Fringe Award 2019 (EUAN)\n★★★★★ – “ChewBoy Productions are a theatrical force to be reckoned with.” – The Review Chap (EUAN)\n★★★★ – “Wonderfully avant-garde\, open to countless different interpretations.” – Everything Theatre (PROCESS TRILOGY)\n★★★★ – “EUAN could soon be following Fleabag’s footsteps as a fringe show turned masterpiece.” – Artsvoice (EUAN)\n★★★★ – “An ambitious\, uniquely bizarre company unafraid to embrace the delightfully weird.” – Movie Burner (THE ZIZZ)\n★★★★ – “Downright bewildering\, but also bloody brilliant.” – Views from the Gods (EUAN)\n★★★★ – “”dark\, ridiculous and brazenly charming\, EUAN is a truly peerless invention” (bn1 magazine)

SUMMARY:The Green Room
DESCRIPTION:The Green Room is an exhibition and public engagement project curated by Reem Shadid\, developed\nin part during her residency at V.O Curations. The project invites artists\, Anna Engelhardt and Bahar\nNoorizadeh\, to share questions and insights around the deep interdependence of the digital world\nwith our material one\, namely by exploring digital platforms\, websites\, infrastructures and networks. \nThrough their respective (art)works – Circuits of Truths (C.T) by Engelhardt and Weird Economies\n(W.E)\, a project initiated by Noorizadeh – this presentation will consider the back-end infrastructure of\ndigital platforms as a set of ambiguous relations rather than cables\, wires\, and servers. The exhibition\ncautiously approaches how we relate to and navigate the cyber domain as space. Drawing from the\nspectrum that ranges from public to private physical spaces. \nThe Green Room presents cyberspace as a part of such a continuum. The exhibition unleashes the\ncontent\, architecture\, networks\, and infrastructures of the two works through an online and physical\nspace. It seeks to propose how to think through\, create and re-appropriate other modes of relating\,\ngovernance\, knowledge\, verification and ownership through these tools. \nConceived as a hybrid back-end space\, C.T AND W.E come together through spatial interventions as\nwell as a public programme\, comprising conversations and workshops. W.E and C.T meet at three\ncentral nodes that will guide spatial and conceptual engagement: ownership\, verification and\nsurveillance. \nAs an online platform and think-tank prioritizing artistic strategies that trace economic imaginaries\ndespite current financial arrangements and systems\, Weird Economies (www.weirdeconomies.org)\nself-reflectively questions and deliberates the platform’s code of ethics\, and mode of ownership and\ngovernance. It also aims to recuperate the increasingly extractive\, privatized and hegemonized\ncondition of a digital platform in order to create a common one that is able to scale up and down\neffectively when needed. During the exhibition period\, W.E gathers ‘stakeholders’ to share and\ndiscuss values\, goals and strategies to create a common space for the research and practice of\nalternative economies. At a time when art institutions are increasingly relying on digital content\, how\ncan we understand ownership of this content and its circulation? What forms of collective\nparticipation\, decision-making\, autonomy\, accountability and cooperation among members working\nacross geographies might mean today or what could it look like? What can this hybridity of our being\nand relations open up to in building the tools\, networks\, economies and infrastructures that we need. \nThrough Circuits of Truth\, Engelhardt scrutinises the notions of authenticity and fake\, foundational\nfor our digital realm. The website (https://machinic.info) offers insight into and tools to reconsider our\nrelationship to the complex paradoxes of truth production. Introducing users to the various steps the\ncontent goes through to become ‘true’ reveals the digital assembly line that manufactures\nauthenticity. Engelhardt allows choosing the level and mode of engagement with the infrastructure\nshe investigates. The networks she highlights span from tracking devices that spread fake news to\ncyber weapons that engage verified accounts. Through her intervention in The Green Room\, she\nforces us to confront our own digital autonomy or lack thereof. What is the role of seemingly menial\nvisual signifiers like blue verification ticks and authentication requests on the internet? How can we\nexit the closed verification bubbles reliant on binaries of ‘true’ and ‘fake’? Where do we start looking\nto reverse engineer these various mechanisms of “truth” production? \nThe public programme for The Green Room looks at broader questions of digital infrastructures to\naddress the central nodes of the project. Interviewed by Engelhardt\, Emily Rosamond\, lecturer in\nVisual Cultures at Goldsmiths University\, will talk about reputational warfare and algorithmic rating.\nJared Davis\, Associate Editor of AQNB and co-host of the editorial platform’s Artist Statement\npodcast\, will convene a workshop on digital ownership and cooperation. Finally\, W.E will host a closed\nassembly that will draw and connect desired\, practical and imagined values\, goals and strategies to\ncreating a digital commons based on shared interest in alternative economies; the results of this\nmapping will be installed in space following the workshop. \nThe Green Room scratches at questions around the relationship between digital infrastructures and\nmaterial worlds\, understanding it as a continuum from one realm to another rather than their current\ncommon binary dispossession. What can this understanding support and what does it reveal? In what\nhas become an inevitable search\, we seek to locate public space in relation to private digital worlds\nand vice versa and are left constantly with the question; What can these technologies open up anew\nin our current conditions\, be it as a new language\, constellation of relations\, or an opportunity to\nexplore and instrumentalize that which lies within the gaps and leaks of these intersecting worlds. \nAnna Engelhardt is a Russian media artist and writer whose research-based practice explores post-\nSoviet infrastructures as a form of politics. Comprising texts\, videos\, websites\, and digital platforms\,\nher investigations take on multiple forms of media and distribution as they develop over time. Her\nproject Circuits of Truth (2021) explores cyberwar from the perspective of user verification\, and was\ncommissioned by GARAGE Museum of Contemporary Art\, Moscow. Produced using deepfake\ntechnology\, her video essay Adversarial Infrastructure (2020) investigates the colonial violence of\nthe Russian Crimean Bridge\, and was shown at Ars Electronica\, 67th International Short Film Festival\nOberhausen\, Vancouver International Film Festival and Kyiv Biennial. Anna’s writings have been\npublished in Mute Magazine\, Strelka Magazine\, Journal of Visual Culture\, and the European Review. \nBahar Noorizadeh is a filmmaker\, writer\, and platform designer. She works on the reformulation of\nhegemonic time narratives as they collapse in the face of speculation: philosophical\, financial\, legal\,\nfutural\, etc. Noorizadeh is the founder of Weird Economies\, an online art platform that traces\neconomic imaginaries extraordinary to financial arrangements of our time. Her work has appeared at\nthe German Pavilion\, Venice Architecture Biennial 2021\, Tate Modern Artists’ Cinema Program\,\nTransmediale Festival\, DIS Art platform\, Berlinale Forum Expanded\, and Geneva Biennale of Moving\nImages among others. She is pursuing her work as a PhD candidate in Art at Goldsmiths\, University\nof London where she holds a SSHRC Doctoral Fellowship. \nReem Shadid is a curator\, researcher and cultural organizer who works on the emancipatory\npossibilities within artistic practice\, exploring the ways it intersects with ecological\, political and\nsocio-economic forms. She is the producer and host of Radio Alhara’s show Listening with Reem\nShadid; monthly listening sessions with artists\, researchers and curators working at the intersection\nof sonic\, visual and literary productions. She is also a contributing editor at Infrasonica\, a digital\nplatform of non-western cultures. Previously\, she was the Deputy Director of Sharjah Art Foundation\,\nwhere she served in various capacities\, focusing mainly on organising and producing the Sharjah\nBiennial between 2006-2020.

SUMMARY:Indie Bookshop Phlox Celebrates International Women's Day in Connaught Village
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate IWD\, Connaught Village invites indie bookshop Phlox Books to pop up over March with women-focused books and female author events featuring the likes of Abi Daré and Mona Arshi to showcase the female experience in literary form. \nFounder of East London independent bookshop Phlox Books\, Aimée Madill has proudly been serving ‘Books.

On this occasion\, Aimée has taken the opportunity IWD has presented to platform female authors and host a series of events in Connaught Village. Located at 12 Connaught Street\, the pop-up will operate as a bookshop and events space where notable authors will discuss their work. \nAt street view\, the front of the bookstore will feature hand-painted illustrations by female illustrator Alezeia Fidalgo who has a penchant for books and creating original illustrations to accompany the text. \nThe first event at Phlox Connaught Village will take place on the day itself\, Tuesday 8th March\, with award-winning author\, Abi Daré\, whose debut novel ‘The Girl With the Louding Voice’ was published in 2020\, longlisted for the Desmond Elliott Prize and chosen as a BBC Radio 4 Book at Bedtime.

Arshi will be talking about her debut novel\, ‘Somebody Loves You’ (published 2021). Events will continue throughout March with a selection of authors handpicked by Aimée. Each event will see a discussion between the authors and an open forum for the audience to explore different themes of the female experience. \nEach event promises guests a deep dive into each woman’s creative process and an excellent chance to explore their views on IWD\, the female gaze\, and their respective literary futures.

SUMMARY:Sotheby's Institute of Art Panel Discussion: Does the Artist’s Muse Have a Place in the Modern World?
DESCRIPTION:In this panel discussion\, leading art historians and lecturers from Sotheby’s Institute of Art (Dr David Bellingham\, Dr Amy Mechowski and Dan Vo) will discuss the role\, representation and history of the muse\, across time and cultures\, from ancient Greece to today. \nWhat is the origin of the muse? We all know the likes of Elizabeth Siddall but have other muses been overlooked? Who has been a significant muse? Should the outdated label be cancelled\, or do we need to reconsider the term for today? Which muses have changed art history? What is the future of the muse? \nThe event will be chaired by Ruth Millington\, Author of Muse (2022\, Vintage Publishing) and a faculty member at Sotheby’s Institute of Art. \nThis event is in partnership with Sotheby’s Institute of Art
