Mark Thomas: Red Shed (work in progress) @ Jacksons Lane

Red Shed is the third part in a trilogy that started with the multi award winning shows Bravo Figaro and Cuckooed.

Mark returns to the place where he first started to perform in public, a red wooden shed in Wakefield, the Labour Club, to celebrate the club’s 50th birthday.

Interviewing old friends and comrades Mark pieces together the club’s history and works with the club to campaign with some of the poorest workers in the country for their rights.

It is the story of the battle for hope and the survival of a community in a small wooden shed.

It is part theatre, part stand up, part journalism, part activism and returns to Mark’s obsessions of community and struggle.

The show will involve the audience (in a nice way) to help recreate the shed and its inhabitants.

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
Dr Philip Pogge Von Strandmann, London Geochemistry and Isotope Centre, University College London

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.

Ivo Neame (piano), George Crowley (tenor saxophone), Tom Farmer (bass), Martin France (drums)

Pianist and composer Ivo Neame has now reached European star status with his work with piano trio Phronesis and with Norwegian superstar saxophonist Marius Neset. A considerable leap up from those Kentish Town Loop Collective sessions of a few years ago. Having heard his own Quartet at this year’s Swanage Festival, where he delighted a full church venue of typical elderly mainstream jazz fans with his innovative but beautifully melodic and accessible music, we are fortunate to be able to attract such a busy musician to the House. If you think new wave Euro jazz is all about ice-cold intellectualism, come and have your prejudice confounded. At some points George Crowley almost sounds like one of those classic Texas tenors; there are real jazz roots in this music.
