Theatre Visit: ‘Signal Fires’ at Slung Low, The Holbeck

October 31, 2020 @ 19:00 - 21:30

Join us for an event with Slung Low at The Holbeck.  The UK’s leading touring theatre companies are uniting this autumn to present Signal Fires, a nationwide project inspired by one of the original forms of theatre – storytelling around a fire.

In light of the current crisis, the signal fires will create beacons across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland warning of the threat the industry continues to face while celebrating the extraordinary vibrancy of touring theatre and the freelancers they engage. Stretching across four nations, this festival of fires will connect audiences, freelance artists and touring companies together in a communal, national act of storytelling.

What’s going on at Slung Low?

We will light a bonfire in front of the club, and have invited story-tellers, poets and musicians to gather around it, with you, to tell tales lit by the flames.

Featuring Nima Taleghani, Iain Bloomfield and music from Claire Marie Seddon and David Broad.

There will be a bar with table service in the car park.
