| Posted: 27 Sep 2012 07:51 AM PDT  Thursday 1 November, 8pm Tickets £18.50 We are lucky to have musicians like Thea Gilmore, musicians that want more from themselves and more from music than some pre-formed, whistle-friendly cud. Gilmore is that rare creature, an actual adult with a heart and a soul, a real person tackling the issues real people deal with every day. Unlike the rest of us, she tackles those issues with an utterly beautiful voice and songs that touch on folk, jazz, rock and Americana. Bruce Springsteen buys her records, and artistes ranging from Martha Wainwright to Mike Scott seek to collaborate with her.

| 2013 ... Come play with us at Inter-Action MK Posted: 10 Oct 2012 05:19 AM PDT INTER-ACTION MK Strikes Again.......... Fancy a bit of winter warming around January time? Yes, thought you might agree, a bit of sparkle is just what MK needs when Christmas is over and New Year sets in. Yes, I know, it does sounds a bit mad considering that those delicious, if yet a bit annoying chocolate father Christmas’ have only just been put out on the shelves, but we all know that time stands still for no one, and that ‘Lovely’ festival we had here at Inter-Action MK in July only seemed like yesterday! So, how are we going to warm your cockles, shimmy your smiles, and get MK feeling all warm and fuzzy? As you may or may not know, we received the second bid for Loveliness but the verdict came in a bit late so we couldn’t utilise the money back in the summer. So, we put those thinking caps on down at the Old Rectory and decided what better way than to do it all over again?! ‘Again?’ I hear you cry! Well yes, if something is blooming well brilliant why not do it again! This time we are going bigger, bolder and we want MORE of MK’s Fabulous Community groups involved. We have only just gone and bagged ourselves a blinking well marvellous venue for the event, which of course will be inside and is under wraps till all those Christmas pressies have been opened! There will be the usual eclectic mix of wonderment and wizardry, arts and craziness, live music and workshops and of course, YOU ..... well, we are hoping! So why not get in touch and let us know if you think you can help us add the first sparkles of summer sun to 2013, as we party with all things ‘Lovely’. Have talent? Are you an Artist? Performer? Charity? Local organisation? Fancy a bit of the Action?????? Get in touch with Emmy on 01908 678514 or enarbutas@interactionmk.org.uk |

The Floe take their craft seriously and you can hear it in every beat of the music they create. Box Office: 01908 280800 |
