Crow- Avanti Display Taking the form of a music concert, the show begins at twilight, with three musicians arriving for a gig. As the light fades, the atmosphere begins to change. An inventive music score is interrupted by ridiculous acts of conjuring, more Tommy Cooper than David Blane. Reality seems to warp. When full darkness falls, sleight of hand and video projection expand this comic and curious world, suggesting ideas both profound and absurd. Avanti Display is one of the UK’s longest established outdoor performance companies creating over twenty original shows. This production features collaborations with a range of artists: music by Seaming To; words by Lou Glanfield (IOU), dramaturgy by Mark Long (People Show), Audio Visual design by Chris Squire (Impossible Arts). The show was conceived by Bill Palmer, developed and performed by the company: Bill Palmer, Chris Squire, Paschale Straiton, Seaming To and Semay Wu. Zoe Mulford Zoe Mulford is rapidly becoming best-known as the writer of The President Sang Amazing Grace, which has been covered by Joan Baez and by Kronos Quartet featuring Meklit. The song was voted 2018 Song of the Year by Folk Alliance International. Originally from Pennsylvania, she first started performing her own songs while living in North Carolina in the 1990's. Since then, she has released five albums on the cooperative Azalea City Recordings label. She now lives in the North of England and tours on both sides of the Atlantic. There will be a bar available serving alcohol and non-alcohol drinks Doors open 7.00pm Zoe Mulford 7.30pm Interval 8.15 pm Avanti Display- Crow 8.45pm Information Source: Jonathan Hodgkinson | eventbrite

Project partners are Writing Our Legacy (WOL) and Diversity Lewes and The Rest Experience and working with academic Dr Jess Moriarty.

In Swahili, the name Maisha represents the value, diversity, and beauty of life, the profound meaning of life and the energy, power, and essence of being. It is a name celebrated across African societies and more widely that inspires connections between human existence, nature and the whole community of life. It acknowledges these interconnections as precious and vital and should be celebrated. Project Aims The project seeks to connect individuals and build new communities. Storytelling, in particular, can be a catalyst for community, enabling people to share their lives and experiences and combating feelings of loneliness. We want to address the inequality of access to the natural environment in the UK. Writing Our Legacy CIC is an arts and heritage organisation that enables Black, Asian and ethnically diverse/BPOC* people to tell their story through writing and the creative arts. We were established in 2012. We give writers and other creatives a platform and community to feel supported, nurtured and evolve their work through the creative pipeline, from start to publication. We share stories and heritage of diaspora communities and bring them to life through various art forms for audiences to learn and take part in cultural heritage. We are an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. Information Source: Writing Our Legacy CIC | eventbrite
