p.c. Alison Matthews 2012

Thanks to the Arnolfini, especially Mel Scaffold and the BLOP gang, as well as Theatre Bristol & InBetween Time productions, for the wonderful day on Saturday! And thanks to our fellow BLOPPers whose work intrigued and inspired.

Those of you who took part in "Servus" - I'll be emailing you soon with photos from your experience (if you ticked "photo" on our mailing list) and more! If anyone has any comments or feedback about the project, please don't hesitate to contact me here or at my email: alison DOT e DOT matthews AT gmail DOT com

...."buy a mini-performance from a market stall" - that's us, mofos!

BLOP at Arnolfini, Brighton Fringe debut, and Ludus Festival in Leeds!!

Thanks to all who gave us such a wonderful welcome at the Bristol Storytelling Festival. Both gigs - in the Watershed and my solo stint in St. Paul's Crypt at night - went so well, thanks to the lovely, warm Bristolians. I'm itching to spend more time down there...

As luck has it, Ten Cents a Dance is gearing up for its next showing at the Arnolfini is Bristol on Feb. 25! Be there! 11am sharp in the lobby. Join us for the entire day, and catch many other great performance makers from around the UK!

In other news, I am happy to announce that EVE SPEAKS: a musical cabaret will be touring to Brighton Fringe Festival on May 4-6, 2012, thanks to OtherPlace Productions at Upstairs@ Three and Ten right in the city centre (link here). I will also be performing at OtherPlace's launch event on May 3, which is at their larger Warren venue. Hurray!

Ten Cents has also been invited to participate at Leeds PSI18's Ludus Festival programme, which runs alongside the larger PSI conference as a separate artistic event. Ten Cents will straddle (excuse me) both the conference proper and the Ludus festival. We're looking for people to play with us in Leeds, so if you're interested, contact me!

Also, just a lovely tidbit I've been enjoying: videos from NYC's Creative Time Forum in August/September 2011, Claire Bishop especially: link HERE!

That's all for now,
