SUMMARY:LCA World Circle Dance Workshops with Emma Lucy Dance
DESCRIPTION:In these workshops we will learn dances from around the world; from Greece to Bollywood\, from lively to meditative\, from frivolous to sacred. We will learn about the roots of the dances and try our own feet at the steps. We will probably get it wrong quite a few times – that’s all part of it. We might never get it right – that’s ok. These classes aren’t dance instruction – they’re dance exploration.  \nI teach these dances as circle dances. There is joy and celebration and fun in learning and dancing together and that energy flows particularly well in a circle. This style of dance is transformative too; in opening our bodies to unfamiliar movements\, our ears to unfamiliar music and our minds to unfamiliar philosophies we prove to ourselves and the rest of the circle that we are bolder\, more capable and more flexible than we think.   \nEveryone is welcome to come and join as we explore various dances from across this diverse and beautiful world. Circle dancing is very versatile and adaptable to suit each dancer. The ethos of circle dancing is ‘there are no mistakes\, only variations.’ This makes it inclusive and welcoming for people of all ages and abilities. No special footwear or clothing is required. No experience is necessary as the dances are all taught first. \nWe will meet each week at 2.00 p.m. at Meanwood Institute where some of the dancing will take place\, however weather permitting we may also walk to the park for some of the sessions.  Please wear comfortable clothing and footwear. \nEntrance £3.00/£2.00 (members & concessions) including refreshments. \nSee you in the circle! \n\n\n\nWorkshop schedule:\n\n\nWeek 1\nTuesday 30th July 2019\n\n\nWeek 2\nTuesday 6th August 2019\n\n\nWeek 3\nTuesday 13th August 2019\n\n\nWeek 4\nTuesday 20th August 2019\n\n\nLCA Summer break\n\n\nWeek 5\nTuesday 10th September 2019\n\n\nWeek 6\nTuesday 17th September 2019

SUMMARY:Theatre Visit - 'Call Me Dusty'
DESCRIPTION:Without doubt the finest white soul singer of her era\, Dusty Springfield is the definitive ‘Pop Diva’. Her lifestyle was the stuff of legend\, and great drama. With her quest for perfection and refusal to compromise\, Dusty led a tormented life. Her stage persona was at odds with the shy convent girl she once was and her sexuality. The result: a downward spiral of drugs\, alcohol\, abuse and self-harm\, yet\, she produced tremendous music which still ranks as some of the finest of its kind.   Please note: This is a drama not a musical; however the play does include some music. \nThis production has now sold out.

SUMMARY:LCA Book Group - New book 'The Tin Good' Chris Nickson
DESCRIPTION:Leeds\, England. October\, 1897. Superintendent Harper is proud of his wife Annabelle. She’s one of seven women selected to stand for election as a Poor Law Guardian. But even as the campaign begins\, Annabelle and the other female candidates start to receive anonymous letters from someone who believes a woman’s place lies firmly in the home.\nThe threats escalate into outright violence when an explosion rips through the church hall where Annabelle is due to hold a meeting – with fatal consequences. The only piece of evidence Harper has is a scrap of paper left at the scene containing a fragment from an old folk song. But what is its significance?\nAs polling day approaches and the attacks increase in menace and intensity\, Harper knows he’s in a race against time to uncover the culprit before more deaths follow. With the lives of his wife and daughter at risk\, the political becomes cruelly personal … \nAll reading takes place in two hours slot\, including a break.

SUMMARY:'Poetry & Arts Evening' with Michael Hildred 'Time and Tide'
DESCRIPTION:Our minds leap to complete the proverb\, which instantly gives food for thought about the human condition. Yet how much more potent does the process become when we realise that the saying is attributed to Geoffrey Chaucer in 1395. \nThis evening gives us the opportunity to explore the theme in all its richness and variety\, with a truly Yorkshire flavour.

SUMMARY:Day Trip to Nostell Priory near Wakefield
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Heritage Weekends we have organised a trip to Nostell Priory on Doncaster Road\, Near Wakefield. \nNostell Priory is a glorious 18th-century country house with interiors by Palladian master architect Robert Adam. The house was built in 1733 to a design by James Paine. Robert Adam was called in to expand and renovate Paine’s work in 1766\, and over the next 19 years he created a marvellous neo-classical house. The house takes its name from medieval Nostell Priory\, an Augustinian monastery founded in 1114. The monastery was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1540. The monastic site is near the current house\, but there is very little to see beyond the 17th-century cow stalls which were converted from monastic outbuildings. Nostell Priory stands 2 stories high\, with a centre block of 5 bays. The interiors are mainly by Robert Adam\, with furniture designed by Chippendale specifically for the Priory. There is an extensive art collection with paintings by Angelica Kauffman and Breughel\, among others. The library is considered one of the best at any National Trust property. Free Entrance. Please meet at 10.00 a.m. at Leeds Central Bus Station.

SUMMARY:'Tolkien Trail' with Poetry and Music
DESCRIPTION:The Tolkien Trail 2019 Claire Rae Randall \nThis celebration of the time Professor JRR Tolkien spent in and around Headingley in the period after the Great War will give the local community the opportunity to explore and discover this aspect of its cultural heritage. The rich depth of historical landscape and features that we pass by daily may have contributed influences to his legendary world of Middle-earth and we can learn to see our environment in new mythic ways.  During the walk there are likely to be some musical contributions from local musicians “Shadowfax”\, an ad hoc collaboration performing Tolkien’s songs from “The Lord of the Rings” as set to music by Donald Swann in 1967 to complete the immersion in his imaginary world. \nMeet at The Library Pub\, 229 Woodhouse Lane\, LS2 3AP.

SUMMARY:Storytelling Workshops with Saskia Solomons.
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 5 week session of Storytelling workshops with Saskia Solomons at Meanwood Institute\, Green Road\, Meanwood. \nTuesday Afternoons 2 -4 p.m. \nEveryone has a tale to tell\, but how do we turn a memory into story?  This workshop will provide a warm and welcoming space to explore our personal histories and develop the skills needed to craft our memories into captivating stories. We will work with our imaginations\, our senses and our playfulness. Participants will be invited to work with memories of their choice\, and will be supported in the intuitive process of deciding which to tell; if you choose to make it so\, the crafting of a memory and the telling of it can be a very healing process. Together we will create a safe space to honour our stories and celebrate our experiences\, and encourage each participant to work in a way that nourishes them.  \nEach session will offer a different aspect of the craft of the storyteller: from building characters in your body and voice\, to creating images in space\, exploring the relationship to the listener(s)\, and developing moods\, landscapes and language. Entrance is £2.00 including refreshments. \n

As polling day approaches and the attacks increase in menace and intensity\, Harper knows he’s in a race against time to uncover the culprit before more deaths follow. With the lives of his wife and daughter at risk\, the political becomes cruelly personal. \nAll reading takes place in the two-hour slot\, including a break.
