SEAS minus 2 days

Above is the Embassy Centre where most of the indoor theatre productions will be taking place such as League of Time and Sorelle as well as playing host to exhibitions and SEAS headquarters. League of Time is produced by Croatian theatre company BAD.co and it blends together elements of Kafka, futurism and ufology. Sorelle is performed by Swedish company Teater Giljotin and tells the story of three sisters who fall in love with the same sea captain.

Exhibitions taking place include Making Waves, two large scale metal artworks constructed by Katey Felton in conjunction with two local schools and A Daily Dose, a collection of photographs by John Byford depicting parts of everyday life that sometimes pass us by.

Next to the Embassy Centre are the Compass Gardens where Borderline will be. This installation simultaneously plays a Muslim, Christian and Jewish prayer on the hour between 12 and 6PM.

Tower Gardens (opposite the Embassy Centre), is where the suitcase for Suitcases (see entry below) will be situated and Lumley Road is where the procession part of the performance will take place.

Across the road and down a bit from the Embassy is the Ex-Serviceman's Club which is playing host to The Kiss and Waste Project, a video installation telling stories of love, migration and family.

I'll try and list a few more if I get chance as there's loads more going on but the voluntary work is hotting up now and I have to help build that heavy suitcase again tomorrow!
