My latest site-specic project is this: Re/Place - Stories that are right up your street.
Always wanted to go behind the scenes in
Longford Cinema or Cosgrove Hall? Ever wondered what the Sedge Lynn used to be
or why Chorltonville is unique? Never knew about the Chorlton Park paddling
pool or what happened to the Chorlton Green church whose graveyard and lych
gate still remain?
As part of Chorlton Arts Festival 2015,
six critically acclaimed and award-winning writers each sharing an interest in
psychogeography and urban exploration have penned pieces about ghost places and the re-appropriation of spaces. Sarah
Butler, Sarah-Clare Conlon, Claire Dean, Kate Feld, David Gaffney and Nicholas
Royle will perform their site-specific short stories and present postcards from
the past at this special event. Supported by Arts Council England.
Contact me if you have your own stories to share: sarahclareconlon@gmail.com - we'd love to hear from you and incorporate them if we can.
Proof, Manchester Road, Chorlton. Wednesday 20 May 2015. Doors
7.30pm. Free entry.
