Our five parliamentary candidates have been invited to give their views on climate change.
Time now confirmed – 7.30 – 9pm
If Kraftwerk made circus it would look something like this: comedy meets electro-robotic-vogueing in an epic feat of handstand endurance!
Natalie Reckert is a German hand balancer who loves to dance to electronic beats and read Wikipedia articles about load experiments. In her highly skilled one-woman experiment, she tests the limits of the body and the stability of quite a lot of eggs. Brilliantly absurd and totally unique.

Mondays @ the Mills: A history of climate change: why planet Earth is habitable |
|||
| 20th March 2017
A history of climate change: why planet Earth is habitable Earth has been inhabited by life for almost 90% of its 4.5 billion year existence. The picture of a barren, volcano- and lava-rich landscape was therefore only true for a very short time. Given that life requires fairly narrow climatic and chemical conditions, this means that the Earth’s climate has been remarkably stable for most of its life. This cannot simply be a coincidence, and therefore means that there must be active climate-stabilising mechanisms. This talk will examine these mechanisms, both in the past and what they mean for the future of our existence. 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. |

String Dimensions
String Dimensions, founded by Bogdan Vacarescu in 2017, is a London-based chamber ensemble of international soloists.
String Dimensions is no ordinary chamber ensemble. United by a mutual interest in performing music all too rarely heard in today’s concert programmes, they have given the UK premieres of Antonio Bazzini’s works and perform neglected repertoire such as Fritz Kreisler’s String Quartet and works by Enescu and Cherubini. Their programmes also include original arrangements of well-known classical works for string duos, trios, quartets and larger groups.
The ensemble features Allegri Quartet cellist Vanessa Lucas-Smith, Canadian violist Brooke Day, Japanese violinist Akiko Ishikawa and it is led by the Romanian violinist Bogdan Vacarescu.
They all perform internationally in the most prestigious festivals and venues such as London’s Kings Place, Sydney Opera House, Cheltenham Music and Melbourne International Arts Festivals, as well as on radio and television worldwide.
Programme:
Grieg – String Quartet No 2 in F major (Unfinished)
Kreisler – String Quartet in A minor
Interval
Bazzini – String Quartet No 6 in F major
Liszt – Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 (quartet arrangement)

Prepare to be swept up in the magic of physical theatre, puppetry, and live music, all performed by the UK’s finest talent from Flabbergast Theatre, Complicite and Created a Monster.

Jacksons Lane plays host to the first ever, try-out performances of a new show championing the power of young peoples’s imagination in these times of great change. It’s an international project that also couldn’t be more local as both of its creators David Glass and David Pearl (aka The Davids) live in North London, a stone’s throw from Jacksons Lane.
