Breaking Bread: On Otherness
Lancaster Arts Lancaster University, Lancaster, United KingdomFollowing a series of conversations with a diverse group of artistic practitioners, we invite you to join us as we begin an attempt at redefining belonging and otherness. In the spirit of embracing the multiplicity, complexity and in-between-ness of our identities, we host an event that is neither a working lunch, nor a symposium, nor a performance. Though it may be all of these things.
The Midnight Soup
More Music 13-17 Devonshire Road, Morecambe, United KingdomThe Midnight Soup is an intimate performance meal. It starts as a monologue, and in gentle and unpresuming ways opens out to become a conversation. It tells the story, of an unremarkable woman, who every day, sat down to meticulously record the facts of her life in a diary, until one early summer day, she chose to end her own life
