Experimental 'scratch' night
The Junction’s experimental ‘scratch’ night offers artists the chance to present new ideas and extracts of work in development – and then invites the audience to tell them exactly what they thought about it. Join us to sample performance art from the region and share feedback in the bar afterwards.
At February’s showcase we’ll be scratching hip hop dance, contemporary dance and emerging theatre; hope you can join us…
SIN Cru: hiphop collective, Sin Cru, showcase ‘Butterfly Stitch,’ a piece of dance theatre which combines spectacle with grace and precision.
Eamonn Flemming: regional deviser and performer ‘scratches’ Magic Thinking, a new one man show, in association with Norwich Arts Centre.
Dog Kennel Hill Project: dance performance artists Ben Ash, Henrietta Hale and Rachel Lopez de la Nieta present excerpts from The Odd Honesty Code, originally commissioned by The Place Theatre, London.
PIT: Fringe award winning theatre company, PIT, present a concoction of live music, animation, new writing, puppetry and everything else you can imagine.
Green Bean Dance: contemporary dance choreographer Katie Green showcases Caught up, a piece originally created at Dance 4; three dancers playfully test their limits, learn from and support each other.
This is a pay what you like show.
Bar open from 7pm.

Plus special guests - SOLD OUT!
THIS EVENT HAS SOLD OUT!
Shimmering indie-rock from this youthful Scottish four-piece. The View make the kind of music that Primal Scream and The Charlatans would be proud of - clashing guitars, swirling melodies, unexpected crescendos and psychedelic vocals.
'At last Scotland finds its own grotty underbelly being given a rabid, celebratory pop summation.' NME
Under 14's must be accompanied by an adult. Bar open from 7pm.

An Evening With John Cooper Clarke
In a vain attempt at bourgeois credibility, Manchester's sharp-dressed, sharp-delivering punk poet Lenny, changed his name to John Cooper Clarke and embarked on a polysyllabic excursion though Thrillsville. Clad in the slum chic of the hipster, he issued the slang anthems of the zip age in the desperate esperanto of bop. Expect a mix of hilarious anecdotes of life in a Northern town interspersed with machine-gun fast delivery of some of his best poems.
'If you think poetry is dull and boring, or posh and erudite - you haven't seen JCC!'
Under 14’s must be accompanied by an adult. Bar open from 7pm.
