I so am excited. And for good reason. Fuel Festival is coming to Glasgow. Fuel? Like energy? Like fire?
Well, kind of.
Fuel is a theatre-producing phenomenon made up of the talented Louise Blackwell and Kate McGrath. They create intriguing, edgy, unique theatre with some of the most exciting artists around. And they’re in Glasgow for a week at the Tramway from 20 -25 November. If you don’t know them, it’s definitely time you were introduced.
Celebrating life in unexpected places
Treat yourself to the award-winning The Simple Things in Life, a celebration of life in a garden shed. Or if you fancy getting in (and out of) touch with your senses, try Ring – performed in complete darkness. Go on a journey of sound via headphones amplifying intimate details of the room. Who knows just where you’ll end up.
If storytelling fused with imagery sparks your interest, then Inua Ellams is your man. Black T-shirt Collection is a must. This spoken-word artist’s ability to conjure up images and totally captivate with words alone is nothing short of impressive.
And this is only some of the many intrepid offerings.
Yes, it’s easy to get bogged down in winter’s short days and long nights. So all the more reason to fuel your curiosity and set your creative soul alight. Lots to experience and definitely not to be missed.
Fuel for thought.
