Well, a few short years on, I had taken the plunge and bought it online (there’s a link on my website) without even informing my wife; I even got lucky because they had quoted me an out-of-date shipping cost of just £5 which they duly honoured.

  • Aatif Nawaz Edinburgh Fringe 2017 Press Release
    Edinburgh Fringe 2017 ! Aatif Nawaz: The Last Laugh The Newsroom (Laughing Horse) 3 - 27 August @ 11:15pm 'A man with big ambitions - this is brave, important comedy’ Three Weeks Images Footage 2017 marks ten years in comedy for Aatif Nawaz. In that time, he has tackled obstacle after obstacle in a highly competitive and cut-throat in- dustry. He has experienced highs and lows: hilarious interactions with Channel 4; chance meetings with comedy legends (including advice from Jimmy Carr and Omid Djalili) dalliances with the BBC, and harsh, harsh rejections from...well...a lot of people. In his quest for comedy stardom, few stones have been left unturned and - after a long, hard graft - it’s finally time for Aatif to have The Last Laugh. 'Excels in his light-hearted, yet damning critiques of the way the world twists and stretches the truth' Fringe Guru Aatif Nawaz is an award winning stand-up comedian and presenter. His first two solo shows Muslims Do It 5 Times A Day and AATIFicial Intelli- gence both earned rave reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe and spawned sell-out runs in London. Aatif has appeared on BBC's Newsnight, BBC's Red Button Comedy Show, BBC Radio 5 Live's Afternoon Edition as well as various programming on Channel 4, Channel 5 and the Islam Channel. Most recently, Aatif presented his first BBC Radio 4’s Inconspicuous Consumption, and has appeared on Stephen Fry’s English Delight. Aatif has featured on numerous this year including Public Convert No 1 supporting American comedian Preacher Moss, The LOL Comedy Tour and the Human Appeal Comedy Tour that took places across 20 cities across the UK and featured performances from Mo Amer, Imran Yusuf, Nail Abdulrashid, Tez Ilyas, Aamer Rahman, and Guz Khan.

    The Stranglers mercredi 4 novembre 2015 à 20h30 La Scène Watteau / Place du Théâtre / Nogent-sur-Marne locations 01 48 72 94 94 www.scenewatteau.fr La Scène Watteau est une scène conventionnée subventionnée par la Ville de Nogent-sur-Marne, la DRAC Ile-de-France, le Conseil départemental du Val-de-Marne et la Région Ile-de-France The Stranglers Jean-Jacques Burnel basse Baz Warne guitare Jim Macaulay batterie Dave Greenfield claviers Provocateur, sulfureux, controversé, The Stranglers est l’un des groupes les plus influents de la scène punk-rock britannique de ces 40 dernières années. Un concert entre fureur et grâce. Nés à la fin des années 70, en pleine déferlante punk, The Stranglers ne cessent de se réinventer d’album en album, passant par le rock, le post-punk, l’électronique, la new wave et la pop. Leur son se caractérise par la basse à la fois mélodique et agressive de JJ Burnel et par les rapides arpèges de Dave Greenfield, joués indifféremment sur orgue Hammond, synthétiseur, piano ou clavecin. Sur scène et en studio, The Stranglers, ou du moins leur première formation jusqu’en 1990, se sont également distingués par un humour provocateur et des frasques devenues légendaires. Groupe très populaire en Grande-Bretagne, ils sont parvenus à placer un nombre impressionnant de titres et d’albums dans le top 40 britannique. The Stranglers entrent aujourd’hui dans leur cinquième décennie d’existence et d’activités effrénées, ce qui en fait l’un des groupes mythiques de l’histoire du rock et surtout l’un des très rares issus du mouvement punk à n’avoir jamais cessé de se produire sur scène.

    Annual Report 2016 SUPER SLOW WAY_ ANNUAL REPORT 2016 2016 has been an extraordinary year for Super Slow Way. WE HAVE SUPPORTED AND DEVELOPED 30 PROJECTS WITH OVER 200 ARTISTS 20 ARTS ORGANISATIONS AND OVER 40,000 ATTENDANCES Bringing great art to the banks of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal Connecting people with artists, each other and their waterway SUPER SLOW WAY: SPARKING A CREATIVE REVOLUTION IN PENNINE LANCASHIRE. Cover image: Shapes of Water, Sounds of Hope. Photo by Graham Kay This image: Kinara. Photo by Matthew Savage superslowway.org.uk 3 INTRODUCTION IN 2016 SUPER SLOW WAY WENT FROM BEING AN IDEA, LOADED WITH POSSIBILITY AND PROMISE, TO AN EXPLOSION OF ACTIVITY. WE SUPPORTED AND DEVELOPED 30 PROJECTS, IN WHICH WE CONNECTED OVER 200 ARTISTS WITH COMMUNITIES IN THE FORM OF COMMISSIONS AND ARTIST RESIDENCIES, MASS PARTICIPATION PROJECTS AND THREE MAJOR FESTIVALS. IT WAS A VERY BUSY YEAR INDEED. Throughout the year we celebrated the Bicentenary of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal – the UK’s longest waterway and the artery that powered the heart of the Industrial Revolution: the mill towns of Pennine Lancashire. Our bold programme has nurtured the beginnings of a creative revolution along its banks, as the post-industrial landscape is transformed and repurposed for social and civic activity. We have watched people come together through art and seen communities begin to think about their self- representation and self-determination, whether through mass participation projects such as Shapes of Water, Sounds of Hope in Brierfield and the thunderous triumph ofSuper Slow Way: A Rhapsody to the Leeds & Liverpool Canal; or in smaller, gentler, but equally profound, projects such as Stephen Turner’s Exbury Egg in Burnley, idle women’s floating arts centre, andBeyond Labels with the young men of Hollins Technology College, among many others.
