YOUR VILLAGE FAIR NEEDS YOU! @ The Woodman
Dec 1 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm

The Highgate Fair in the Square is a highlight in the Highgate Summer calendar

when friends and neighbours come together in the Village for a fun day out and

welcome visitors from further afield.  The Fair promotes local societies, charitable

causes and businesses, provides a stage for talented local groups, children’s

activities and an exciting selection of stalls.

This event is free and takes place thanks to a team of volunteers.  Without their help

in setting up the Fair, stewarding and clearing up afterwards, the whole occasion

could not take place.  Several long serving members of the organizing committee are

standing down this year so we really need new faces to make next year’s Fair on

Saturday 11 June 2016 a success.

If you would like to help and become part of this amazing team we would like to hear

from you.  If you want to find out how you can help and what is entailed, the team

invites you to an open evening from 7.30pm on Tuesday 1 December at The

Woodman, 414 Archway Rd, N6 5UA.  If you can’t make this or would like further

details, please email: thefairinthesquare@gmail.com.

Delicate @ Jacksons Lane
Nov 25 @ 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Four different bodies collide. A show about how things need to fall apart before they can fall into place.

Their lives are different, but one thing unites them: there’re frustrated with their bodies changing, ageing, breaking, no longer obeying. They climb, hang, balance, slide, collapse, hold and hug. They examine marks life has left on their bodies. Film and audio fragments mirror these marks in the wounds inflicted on our planet. These characters are fighting the grind of what’s expected. And you might feel inspired to do the same.

Delicate is BSL interpreted, audio described and captioned. Delicate is presented by Extraordinary Bodies and co-produced with Figurteatret i Nordland and Theatre Royal Plymouth.
