Residence in Residence

Tobacco Factory kindly allowed us to take over their building for two days. We decided to use the space to create a temporarily expanded version of what Residence does. The most effectual element of our organisation is how it puts the SOCIAL at the centre of our work. Merely by being in regular contact with other artists we’ve all benefited. So Residence in Residence tried to do the same thing. Simply bring artists, producers and programmers together in the same space.

The Special Guests' news...

After almost a year of silence (everyone's been off doing other things), we're about to embark on a few week's rehearsals in August for our new show Something Got a Hold of Me, which we showed a work-in-progress of last October. We'll be showing it in Edinburgh as part of the Forest Fringe's Bristol weekend, and then all being well, showing it in a community centre or somesuch place in Bristol in October. Then, come November, we'll be undertaking our first international gigs, showing the piece twice in Germany.
