We heard on the 11th that we had been awarded our Arts Council grant for the Live East project! It's brilliant news because all the artists and venues have been so supportive over the last few months, willingly planning dates, so it is nice to be able to finally confirm everything. We have ten artists (over nine performances), ranging from sonic interventions in Norwich Castle Cafe to an eleven-hour stand-up marathon at the Hotel White Feather in Great Yarmouth. The festival launches at 1pm on Saturday 13th June (Norwich Arts Centre) with an introductory talk, followed by my performance 'Crowd Dispersal'. The rest of the afternoon will be filled with small-scale performances from other/other/other artists (around the whole venue), testing out ideas and talking to the public. Please come along to pick up a map of all the other events in the festival.
The festival runs from Saturday 13th June to Sunday 19th July.
