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.

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.

Swish and Style @ Jacksons Lane
Mar 26 @ 12:30 pm – 3:00 pm

Tired of your t-shirts? Wish you had some different dresses? Save money by bringing along your unwanted (but wearable) clothes to our Swish and Style event and go home with a new-to-you outfit, all for free!

It’s simple. Have a clear out and bring good quality clothes to one of our seven events. For each item you bring, you get a token that you can exchange for another garment (maximum 10 items). Everything is free, everything is clean and everything will be re-worn and re-loved.

How it works

For the first hour (12.30 – 1.30), everyone is invited to drop off their clothes, shoes and accessories that they want to donate. Whilst we busily sort them into style and hang them on hangers, you’ll be free to check out the workshops – learning how to do simple fixes to your clothes and how to upcycle them into something completely different – a jumper becomes a hot water bottle cover, a treasured Babygro becomes a patchwork memory blanket and an old t-shirt becomes a bag. If you have any clothes that need a little TLC, bring them along and our seamstress can fix them for you for free while you wait.

The from 2pm until 3pm, you get to look through all the clothes and choose what you want. If you love it, take it. It’s first come, first served – but no elbows please!

What can you bring?

Please bring along:

  • Clean and wearable clothes, shoes and accessories
  • No damage, holes and stains
  • You can bring women’s, men’s, children’s and baby clothes
  • No underwear please, unless in sealed, unworn condition

Anything that we deem unacceptable will be given back to you and you will not be given a token. We have the right to turn away any item.

Please note only adults will be allowed at events. Parents with children under the age of 12 can bring them but they must remain under the parents’ supervision at all times.

Any clothes that are left over at the end of the event will be donated to the Salvation Army.

Crossing Continents: Ricardo Curbelo and Fiona Harrison in Concert @ Lauderdale House | England | United Kingdom

Ricardo Curbelo (Harp, Cuatro, Maracas, Vocals)
“A sheer delight to see and listen to” (Arran Music Society, 2016)

Fiona Harrison, (Classical Guitar)
“… a musician of great sensitivity both to her instrument and the mood of the music … gifted with a superbly confident technique.” (Hampshire Chronicle)

Innovative Latin American harpist, composer and poet, Ricardo Curbelo, combines traditional music from a variety of Latin American countries, together with his own, spellbinding compositions. Vibrant, energetic and jazzy pieces contrast with more classical, enchanting melodies and tender vocals. He is delighted to share this concert with wonderful classical guitarist, Fiona Harrison, who will also present a fascinating and varied programme of music, crossing cultures and centuries from Renaissance England through to contemporary Japan.
