News March region two_Layout 1 24/02/2014 15:59 Page 1 News A ROUND-UP OF LOCAL AND NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT NEWS Celebrating the Black Country Dudley’s Council has announced that a new Black Country Day will take place on 14 July. Plans to celebrate the occasion with a festi- val of activities are well under way, with local musician Garry Sawers (Black Country Gaz) tasked with leading the community involve- ment. Celebrations are planned over two weekends from 6 July, with live music, com- edy, food & drink and arts & crafts events taking centre-stage in various parts of the region. Garry is currently asking anyone who might be interested in getting involved to get in touch. Musicians, artists, street entertain- ers, jugglers, stilt-walkers, fire-eaters, poets and dancers all have a part to play in what should be a memorable first event, so if you’re one of the above - or affiliated to a business, charity, community group or enter- tainment venue that would like to take part - visit www.blackcountryfestival.co.uk for more Cape Town Opera brings Show Boat to Brum information. Following a much-acclaimed production of Porgy & Bess at Birmingham Hippodrome in 2012, Cape Town Opera is returning to the venue this July with a new version of Show Boat. Based on Edna Ferber's novel of the same name, Show Boat is one of America’s oldest musi- cals. Premiered on Broadway in 1927, it tells the story of the old American south by following the lives of performers, stagehands and dock workers on the Cotton Blossom, a Mississippi River Show Boat. After kicking off its four-date UK tour at the Hippodrome from 2 to 5 July, the show then visits The Lowry, Salford, from 8 to 12 July; Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff, 22 to 26 July; and Dublin’s Bord Gais Energy Theatre, 29 July to 2 August. Commenting on Cape Town Opera’s return to Birmingham, Stuart Griffiths, Chief Executive of Birmingham Hippodrome, said: “We’re very excited to be opening the first ever UK tour of Black Country Gaz Cape Town Opera’s Show Boat here at the Hippodrome in July.

SPECIFICALLY, I EXPLORE HOW THE SOUNDS OF LAUGHTER – AS DISSEMINATED BY THE PODCAST – CAN LEAD TO EXPLOSIONS OF EMOTION IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE; SETTING THE BODY IN MOTION AND LEADING TO NEW WAYS OF THINKING, FEELING AND BEING. WHILE THESE PUBLIC EXPLOSIONS OF EMOTION CAN BE TRANSGRESSIVE, I POSTULATE THAT THEY CAN ALSO RELIEVE SOME OF THE TENSION CREATED BY THE NEGATIVE AFFECTS SWIRLING AROUND FEMINISM, WHICH, ACCORDING TO AHMED, “IS ALWAYS ASSUMED TO BE BRINGING OTHERS DOWN” (AHMED, 2010:65). USING GUATTARI’S IDEAS ON THE PRODUCTION OF SUBJECTIVATION, I ARGUE THAT THESE EXPLOSIONS CAN INTENSIFY THE EMERGENCE OF A GLOBAL, INTERSECTIONAL FEMINIST COMMUNITY, PROVOKING A CONSIDERATION OF HOW PODCASTS SUCH AS THE GUILTY FEMINIST COULD EXTEND OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY AND ONLINE ACTIVISM WITHIN CONTEMPORARY FEMINISMS.
