“Hi I’m Jackson and five years ago I got excited…”

A life-coaching legend tells you how he made it happen . . . and stay happened!

Chris John Jackson, author of ‘Maximum Jackson! 2 weeks with the man’ hits the road with Jackson’s Way, an ‘astonishing take on love, life & finance’ which will –

– Solve 3/4 of you and/or your family’s problems which aren’t necessarily financial
– ‘Jackson’ negative thoughts to make something warmer
– Just come, please

Part theatre, part comedy, Jackson’s Way is a modern day parody of American motivational speakers and a satire on the world of self help and corporate jargon. Join Chris John Jackson for perhaps the most surreal and funny hour you are likely to spend in a theatre.

Winner Of The Perrier Award For Comedy 2004

‘This show is more than comedy. It plays with your intellect as well as your sense of humour….Jackson’s Way is simply the best, funniest, cleverest miracle of make believe.” The Scotsman

“A veritable wizard, a virtuoso of the transcendently absurd…. remarkable for both its sheer inventiveness and its perfect pitch” The New York Times

Search Party: Growing Old with You

Thu 9 Sept
7.30pm
Informal sharing
Free admission
Suitable 14+

Growing Old With You is a life long performance project which attempts to document lived experience in real time. Starting in 2010 and for every 5 (or so) years for the rest of their lives Search Party will create a performance exploring ideas of age, duality and accumulation. Over the course of a lifetime we hope to create a series of works in which we, the work and the audience all grow old together. Search Party are interested in the emotive act of exposing the intimate aspects of their own aging process and its irrevocable link with the audiences’. Growing Old With You is a stark, intimate and playful performance which invites you to confront the inevitability of your own aging process, asking questions about the limitations of this temporal existence.

Search Party are members of Residence, an artist led organisation that creates making-space for artists to create performance, live art and theatre in Bristol.

Development funded by Arts Council England and supported by BAC, South Hill Park and the ShowRoom, University of Chichester.

1927: The Animals and Children took to the Streets

Thu 7 Oct
7.30pm
Informal sharing
Free admission
Suitable 14+

Created by 1927

Co-commissioned by BAC, Malthouse Theatre & The ShowRoom, University of Chichester

Trust no one!
Suspect even your own shadow!

Welcome to the Bayou, a part of the city feared and loathed…

Walk along Red Herring street, until you reach the infamous Bayou Mansions, a sprawling stinking tenement block, where curtain twitchers and peeping toms live side by side, and the wolf… is always at the door.

When Agnes Eaves and her daughter arrive at the Bayou Mansions late one night, does it signal hope in this hopeless place?
Or has the real horror only just begun?!

1927 invite you through a fractal looking glass to a dystopian metropolis of inner city paranoia. Seamlessly synchronizing live music, performance and storytelling with stunning films and animation The Animals and Children Took to the Streets is the wickedly twisted new tale from the multiple award winning company behind the international hit Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.

“A frighteningly gifted new theatre company” The Times

Supported by Corn Exchange Newbury. Early development supported by The Arches, Glasgow and Manipulate Festival. Funded by Arts Council England.

Unity Arts Trust, Unity Studios: Fine Art

Thurs 23rd Sept 12-1pm
Venue: Bishop Otter Campus: Room LO6
Free admission

Tim Sandys-Renton talks about plans for Unity Arts Trust, and its ambitions for a large studio building for artists and craftspeople within the Graylingwell redevelopment (N.E. Chichester) in 2013/14. In the meantime he has set up UNITY STUDIOS in a temporary space, with the task of growing the vision in a relatively small but focused manner. The project aims to be both a community-arts and a creative/cultural small-business start-up scheme, and by linking these two quite different types of activity Unity Arts Trust aims to pilot a new way of supporting artists and the local Chichester community.
