Events on Friday 10th April
“With a new guest performer taking to the stage each night, The Accident Did Not Take Place is a hyper-real exploration of the way we consume information, and the way information consumes us. Join YESYESNONO A frenetic, head-on collision with a world thoroughly mediated by screens, a world possessed with post-truth hysteria, a world yearning for contact with those who seem so far away. YESYESNONO are an award-winning young company based in Manchester. We make fiercely innovative work that wrestles with how connections are made in the 21st century.”

“Not Me is adapted from Marianne Dissard's deeply-engaging and fearless 2019 memoir of trauma and the life of a disordered touring musician. Not your typical recovery memoir - by far - it is a stunning and searing tale from an eccentric musician and artistic powerhouse turned into a beautiful and deeply affecting piece of live performance.”

“songwriting for Tom Hackwell (guitar, vocals) and Max Perry (drums) – a vague attempt at creating something phonically reminiscent of the dream-like verse of Clarice Lispector (the name ‘Lespectre’ is an homage to the work of the Brazilian writer).”

“punk rock from Manchester, on tour to promoting their new album. but more importantly at this show we will be celebrating Jamie's birthday, so bring them a present. probably going to be the biggest punk band in the world by the end of 2020 so come see them while it's still a fiver in a basement.”
