The October meeting of HLWI will be at Highgate Newtown Community Centre [Bertram Street] for this month only. Any interested ladies are welcome to join us to paint a personalised item at Ceramic Circle on the top floor.

November 18th is the last meeting of the year – come and get to know us!
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.
This summer sees the return of Postcards Festival. For two weeks in July, Highgate will be home to a whole host of weird and wonderful acts as we present an eclectic mix of circus, cabaret and extraordinary performance.
What’s more, Postcards 2016 is breaking the mould: for the first time at a London festival, all ticket prices are up to you with the launch of our new Pay What You Decide scheme! Tickets can be reserved in advance (maximum four per booking) and after the performance you’ll have the opportunity to make a donation, either by cash on the door or card at the Box Office.

Combining high-level circus skills with pathos, humour and beauty, Jess Love creates a vision that is at once delicately touching, visually enchanting and heart-warmingly playful. Dark clowning, dirty acrobatics and surreal sideshow feats go hand-in-hand with slapstick, roller-skating, hula hoops, skipping and hopscotch acrobatics – phew! With crafted storytelling and awe inspiring images on a bed of roses and broken glass, it’s so sweet you’ll want to squeal!

Myths remixed: the classic story of Persephone is retold with live music, aerial acrobatics, fire, dance and mime. A high impact show full of hope and sorrow, it’s Greek mythology but not as you know it as this tale of love, choice and empowerment gets a contemporary circus twist. Chivaree Circus will take you on a journey and leave you ready to embrace an eternity in Hades.

If you like food, you’ll love this…
Internationally acclaimed comedian George Egg is also a rather fanatical self-taught cook with a somewhat anarchic approach to making meals. As obsessed with culinary matters as he is with comedic ones, and finding himself dissatisfied with the quality and cost of takeaways and room-service meals while touring the stand-up comedy clubs of the world, George embarks on a project to take matters into his own surprisingly capable hands.
A surreal and absurd mix of stand-up comedy and striking innovation – in the words of Jay Rayner – “You’ll never look at a Corby trouser press in the same way again”
“It’s an hilarious show, with surprisingly good food.” The Times
“It is refreshing to encounter a performer who really is unique.” The Telegraph
“Absolutely glorious.” The Scotsman

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.

David Bowie loved the circus, and we love David Bowie.
Jacksons Lane pays its respects with a once-in-a-lifetime night of spectacular sound and vision that we think will blow your minds. Performers from across the globe come together to celebrate Ziggy, the Thin White Duke, and maybe even Jareth the Goblin King as they choose their favourite Bowie look and song for a night of spaceman-inspired circus that’s out of this world.

Closing the festival in screwball style, join Ireland’s most emotional dancers as they share their bullet proof secret to life and happiness! A motivational, semi-nude, breathtakingly funny show, Sean and Seamus dance and bicker their way through an hour of physical and meta-physical comedy.
