About this event
An open mic and art performance evening organised by Alice Smith. Performers included Alice Smith, poets Carol Finch, Ian Parr, Nicholas Ferenczy, and a poem and some close-up magic from Jax Dramagic. Deborah Edgeley read two poems and a short story from her new book, Wilkommen Zum Rattenfänger Theater.

Mark Sheeky was the only musician on the night and performed a 15-minute section of his album 'The Spiral Staircase': Elephants and Moths, Sea Monsters, and the Battle of Angels and Cxthys sections on two synths with some additional pre-programmed recordings. More of the music was played live than before, with recordings for different sections which were triggered as needed.
