The Kingdom Project

I'll be away for a few days, so there won't be any updates on the blog for a little while.

Which means that I'll miss the Kingdom Project event on Saturday 25th August.
The idea is for an arts project that will help to boost the local economy, and this first event is a fund raiser to get the ball rolling.
So the afternoon sessions start at 2pm at St Mary's Church, with a film installation called Biograph I, followed by live theatre by Pickled Image called Coulrophobia. Tickets are £15.

Then at 6.30pm the Old Electric Shop opens its doors, for Max Reinhardt from Radio 3's Late Junction (they do World Music) followed by Sheema Mukherjee, the Original Sitar girl, both of whom will be joined at the end of the evening by Rita Ray to make Syncrosystem. Tickets are £18.

And at the Globe from 6pm, there will be a second film installation by Jaime Jackson, Biograph II, followed by Footdragger, Rita Ray before she heads off to the Old Electric Shop (she's from Global Beats on the BBC World Service), then Don Letts from BBC Radio 6 Music, and Tom Ravenscroft, also from Radio 6. Tickets are £20.

They have a website at www.kingdomproject.co.uk, and can also be found on Facebook and Twitter.
