COFFEE & COMPUTERS @ Jacksons Lane
Feb 27 @ 10:30 am – 12:30 pm

Need advice about what computer, laptop or tablet to buy?
Still grappling with how to use the one you have already?
Or just fancy coming along and having a play?

COFFEE & COMPUTERS IS FOR YOU

We hold informal one-to-one computer familiarisation sessions over a cup of coffee on the last Friday of the month.

No need to bring anything, just yourself.

“The computer has given me a new life” says 69 year old Coffee & Computers visitor. And the Government has just announced a major new initiative to get everyone over the age of 55 on to the Internet.

So if you are over 55 (or thereabouts) and the very mention of computers bring you out in a cold sweat, call Stuart on 020 8347 2411 or email kirstenhs2012@gmail.com (quoting Coffee & Computers) and give us an idea of what you want to know more about.

Or just come along for the coffee and have a dabble.

You’ll soon wonder how you ever lived without being wired!

We look forward to seeing you

Meta – Gandini Juggling @ Jacksons Lane
Nov 21 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
The vertigo of structure, the infectiousness of the shocking. 
A show about making shows. A reflection on entertainment. In the 90’s the Gandinis made a series of experimental pieces with Choreographer Gill Clarkethat were performed at Jacksons Lane. For this commission they revisit those pieces with a show which is about itself, an elliptical reflexion on their journey through entertainment.
There will be complex juggling, text, ballet dancing, hammers, nudity, tables and a comedy sketch.
Gandini are bursting with concepts and commentary about form, style and substance. They are excited about this dissection of things, about dwelling deeper into the anatomy of a show.
Back at Jacksons Lane as part of the 40th birthday celebrations, this piece seesGandini simultaneously looking back to the past, forward to the future, and trying to explain how to get from one to the other.
With 6 jugglers and 3 dancers.
There will be a Gala performance of meta on Wed 25 Nov. CLICK HERE for more information.

Jan 15 @ 4:05 pm – 5:30 pm

Still struggling a bit with that smartphone, tablet or laptop you got for Christmas? Are they staring at you menacingly or burning a hole in your coffee table?

If the answer is “yes”, here is your chance to find out how to tackle your new gadget. Or perhaps you’re even still grappling with getting the most out of the computer, tablet or smartphone you got the year before? You’re in good company!

The whole IT thing might of course leave you completely cold, but you just fancy popping along for a browse and a cup of great coffee anyway. If so

COFFEE & COMPUTERS IS FOR YOU

Join us for our free informal one-to-one computer familiarisation sessions over a nice cup of coffee. We do tea as well!

No need to bring anything, just your head.

“I wish I’d gotten into this ages ago, keeps me entertained long into the night!” says 72 year old Coffee & Computers friend, who now follows every twist and turn of Arsenal Football Club from his armchair – or wherever he happens to be.

So whether you’re 35 or 95 (our oldest regular so far is 92) and this sounds like you, come along and take a look over a cuppa.

Check us out on facebook http://tinyurl.com/ohkalsh (if you’ve got that far) or give Stuart a call on 020 8347 2411 (quoting Coffee & Computers). You can also email Eric info@coffeecomputers.org and give us an idea of what you want to know more about.

People have asked if they can buy stuff from us. The answer is no, we’re not here to sell you anything. We just show you what fun you can have with a computer, tablet or smartphone and how easy it is!

The world is at your fingertips. Literally!

It’s all free, and we look forward to saying hello.

Plastic Boom: Water on Mars @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 12 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

The oh so hot right now Plastic Boom have created Water on Mars – a meteoric whiz of a show. Take three out of this world skillful young jugglers, six hands and thousands of catches. Add chocolate flies, back flips, giant card castles and magnetic jump ropes. Result: better than sex and as good as chocolate.

Think virtuoso juggling gone wild in this extrinsic playground experiment. Designed for spaceships and distant planets, Water On Mars is the future of juggling!

Co produced with Gandini Juggling, the fringe-storming producers of 4×4 andSmashed.

We have introduced a Pay What You Decide policy for Postcards Festival 2016shows.

You can attend the shows without paying for a ticket beforehand, but tickets can be reserved in advance (max 4 per booking). When the show finishes, you will have the opportunity to make a donation – either by cash on the door or card at the Box Office.
