ABC Wednesday: N is for North & normal service


Grimm Up North was a performance at the nineteen thirties' era venue The Dancehouse and part of the Grimmfest horror film festival which took place last week.  

Normal service was then resumed at The Dancehouse (which is also home to the Northern ballet) with nature cameraman Doug Allan: Life Behind the Lens: Adventures, encounters and insights from the award winning cameraman whose TV credits include the epic wildlife series: "Blue Planet", "Planet Earth", "Life", "Human Planet", "Ocean Giants" and "Frozen Planet"

Dance is a regular occurence here too but comedy also features heavily. Next up in October are comedians Tim Key and Mark Thomas, then one of my heroes on 16th and 17th November, the wonderful John Shuttleworth. ("A National Institution...the 42nd Best Reason to Love Britain"  - Sunday Telegraph). www.shuttleworths.co.uk  And check out his homage to Manchester "You're like Manchester (you've got Strangeways)" and more on YouTube.

  5. I don't know if I'd go see a horror film festival, but it's nice to have the option. Lovely old building.

  6. What a terrific theatre you have - I love that it offers a bit of everything. We've only a small one where we are, but makes such a difference. Doug Allan is amazing!
