Mondays @ the Mills: From Windsor to Highgate via the QE2

20 November 2017

John Plews, Artistic Director Upstairs at the Gatehouse

After several years in rep at the Theatre Royal in Windsor, John worked for cruise lines before setting up theatrical production company ‘Ovation’ in 1985 with his partner Katie.  Looking for a ‘home’ they bought a derelict Victorian music hall in 1997 and turned it into the 140 seat fringe theatre known as ‘Upstairs at the Gatehouse’. In this talk John will describe his journey to Highgate.

Talks take place on Mondays at 7pm in the AV Room in the Mills Centre. Refreshments, including wine, are available from 6.30 pm and afterwards.

Mondays @ the Mills: Help, the Gamer Has Left the Basement! @ The Mills Centre
Mar 19 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Play is a normal way for humans to engage with their environment and subsequently acquire knowledge as well as develop competences. Digital technologies have pushed the potential for games into areas where people engage with one another in virtual and augmented reality. The aim of this talk is to share insights into how games are shaping society and to explore the benefits whilst discussing the potential drawbacks.
