Strange Brew x Doozy Magazine proudly present a gluttony of original and unseen work themed around 'play, process, humour, experimentation' from 38 artists presenting work across video, sculpture, performance, painting, photography, installation + headline sets from k means, Rose Again, & Disk Frisk + the launch of a new arts zine cataloguing recent developments within the Bristol art-music-culture vortex.”

“WITTA (Writing In /To /Through Art) is a practice-as-research initiative developed by Lizzie Lloyd (Senior Lecturer in Fine Art and Art & Writing UWE Bristol). Its name reflects an interest in works that develop interrogative, relational, enquiring, speculative, generative, playful and performative approaches to art through words, and words through art. It looks to actively and experimentally consider how work developed at the intersection of art and text allows for creative/recreative/uncreative, wayward and imaginative thinking.”

From: Talking Tales - storytelling night

“The Thoroughgoods are a new local improv group, formed of graduates from the Bristol Improv Theatre. Their debut show Yesterday, with Jean Thoroughgood tells the life story of the titular Jean—a tale that is epic, comedic, tragic and unpredictable. Much like the Thoroughgoods themselves!”
From: Improv Triple Bill
