An Evening of Live Art
7pm-8pm Stranded With: Lois Keidan
Hosted by Martin O’Brien and ‘Stranded With: You’ hosted by Tammy WhyNot
Based on the long running radio show, Desert Island Discs, where guests choose the music they would take onto a desert island with them. Martin O’Brien will interview Lois Keidan about the live art works that haunt her. Lois will pick eight pieces she has witnessed over her almost forty years in live art and talk about the impact they have had on her life (and hopefully plenty of gossip and outrageous stories around the works too).
Tammy WhyNot will then go roaming and invite anyone who wants to share their own live art memories, to talk for one minute about a work that haunts you in a special ‘Stranded With: You’.
8pm-9:30pm Crash Landing: An Evening of Performance
Live Art Cabaret, a collection of short performances
