Wunderbar Festival : : First in Three

First in Three

Wunderbar brings its take on performance to Northern Stage’s regular opportunity for regional artists to show work in progress and gain audience feedback. The evening will be curated by artist / curator Nicola Singh, in collaboration with the Northern Stage team.

Fragment of ?Stream? - the virtual opera_Dave Allinson and Michelle Tripp
Five performers interact with narrative, sound, projection and live second-life animation, bringing the sense of Medea into the history and future of Stream. Artists Dave Allinson and Michelle Tripp collaborate to produce mixed-media site-specific installations in real and virtual spaces.

“Today’s Special” Exchange Wunderkammer_Jules Cadie
A cabinet of curiosities made-up of items discovered, uncovered or altered; re-cycled, free-cycled or up-cycled. Each item has a unique but hidden story, which might trigger memories of your own. You are invited to re-arrange its ‘treasures’, or to exchange them with whatever you believe to be of equal value.

I shall see your houses_Tiffany Charrington
"Actually I belonged, much better in a place where most people didn?t belong." I shall see your houses is a one-on-one performance installation, explorative of the ambiguous relationship we have with our homes. What makes your house your home? One can only wonder...

Improvised Contemporary Music and Dance_Marek Gabrysch, Molly Sturgess and Fathom

Conductress 11 2009_Katy Howkins and Toby Hopkins
Moving image which integrates movement, gesture and instructive body language to create film that transcend our ‘everyday’ use of language. Katy’s works uses movements based on those of professional and sometimes archaic signal givers, she plays with recognized gestures and uses them to convey her own messages.

Hardcore You Know the Score?_Toby Lloyd
A interactive performance where the audience are asked to participate in his protest against the treatment of prisoners in Guantánamo Bay. The artist will be handcuffed and locked in a small windowless room with a strobe light and sound system bombarding him with rave music for the whole duration of First in Three. The performance will be visible as a live video feed projected next to a jukebox which the audience will be able to control.

Apple-Poet-Tree_John Quinn
A writer is trying to finish his latest work and is constantly interrupted by the computer, incoming calls and technology from the near future. This performance explores our reliance and interdependence on technology. Can it help us to be more creative? Can we help It to be more human?

A Northern Stage event.
