| Oh What a Lovely War, 2 May - 3 May Posted: 16 Feb 2012 02:45 PM PST 2 May - 3 May - Theatre at ArtrixJoin NEW College Degree and Diploma students, for an unforgettable theatrical experience. At times satirical, funny and deeply moving, Oh What a Lovely War has a style all of its own, combining live music, dance, songs and sketches to create a picture of life for those on the front line and those behind it. Created and first performed by Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop in 1963. NEW College's Oh What A Lovely War is a classic of the modern theatre and a powerful reminder of the atrocities of a war that cost twenty million lives. Told through the songs, headlines and facts of the period, it's a satirical attack on the military incompetence and disregard for human life the First World War has come to represent a chilling reminder of man's inhumanity to man. | ||

| Truth, Lies & Life Writing with Candi Miller Posted: 01 May 2012 08:49 AM PDT
Born in Zambia and brought up in South Africa, Candi has been a journalist and advertising copywriter. She now lives in Staffordshire where she teaches Creative and Professional Writing part time.
In 1994 she undertook an expedition to the Kalahari Desert to visit groups of San (Bushman) people. There she was caught up in a huge veld fire, charged by a bull elephant and enchanted by Ju/'hoansi story-telling around a campfire. This inspired her to write her novels, Salt and Honey and Kalahari Passage- both published by Tindal Street Press.
Join Candi at her writing workshop, Truth, Lies & Life Writing at 10am – 12.30pm on Saturday 12th May at South Birmingham College (Main Digbeth campus), Deritend High Street, Birmingham, B5 5SU- 5 minute walk from Birmingham city centre. Tickets are £25/ £20 (concessionary price) This workshop is designed to demonstrate the power and the pitfalls of mining your own or someone else's memories to tell a good non-fiction story. Bring along a plan or a short piece of your life writing if you want some instant group feedback. For more information and to book tickets, please click here. | ||
