Riding the North
In his first piece for Northern Soul, Andy Groves introduces his new blog. Today he talks about his passion, how it has changed his life and offers a tantalising taster of the topics he’ll be tackling over the coming months.
Daylight Robbery
Michael Jacob is no stranger to new writing or the creative industries.
Playing Away from Home
I’m no stranger to one-person shows. They’re tough, tough to perform, tough to write and, if not handled well, tough to watch.
Billy, The Monster and Me
In the first of a series of reviews of all – yes, all – of the shows at this year’s 24:7 Theatre Festival, Lucia Cox kicks off with a monstrous tale.
Revolution in North Korea
Joseph Park is 31 years old, a defector from North Korea and a prophet of the revolution.
Away from Home
Of all the shows in this year’s 24:7 Theatre Festival, one promises to be the most subversive: Away From Home, co-written by veteran TV, radio and theatre writer, Martin Jameson and performer, Rob Ward.
David Slack talks to Northern Soul
David Slack is founder of the 24:7 Theatre Festival, now in its tenth year. He can always be found milling around, helping with front of house, meeting and greeting the press and, generally speaking, being a darn enthusiastic and present director.
Between a Dream and a Whisper
I’m coining a new verb. To be ‘Goldfrapped’ means to have been on a magical journey of mind, body and soul.
It’s All Happening, 24:7
I’m fond of the 24:7 Theatre Festival. I’m fond of its organisers, volunteers and general ethos. I’m fond of some of the productions I’ve seen over the past three years I’ve known about it and I’m sad I’m not a part of it this year.
Feasting on the Bard
There really is no finer way to spend a weekend than feasting on Shakespeare plays and this has been one hell of a memorable weekend gorging on the great man’s words.
