  • Press Release Wednesday 29 August 2018 Further Cast
    PRESS RELEASE WEDNESDAY 29 AUGUST 2018 FURTHER CAST ANNOUNCED FOR DEBRIS STEVENSON’S NEW WORK POET IN DA CORNER, DIRECTED BY OLA INCE OPENING IN THE JERWOOD THEATRE DOWNSTAIRS FRIDAY 21 SEPTEMBER 2018. New trailer here. Downloadable artwork here. Listen to a track Kemi from the show here. Left to right back row: Jammz, Debris Stevenson and Mikey ‘J’ Asante. Left to right front row: Kirubel Belay and Cassie Clare. Photo credit: Romany-Francesca Mukoro In the semi-autobiographical Poet in da Corner poet, lyricist, and dancer Debris Stevenson explores how grime helped shape her youth. Debris and previously announced writer and performer Jammz will be joined by Cassie Clare and Kirubel Belay. Directed by Ola Ince, Poet in da Corner will also feature music and composition from Michael ‘Mikey J’ Asante, co-founder and co-artistic director of Boy Blue.

In a strict Mormon household somewhere in the seam between East London and Essex, a girl is given Dizzee Rascal’s ground-breaking grime album Boy in da Corner by her best friend SS Vyper. Precisely 57 minutes and 21 seconds later, her life begins to change – from feeling muted by dyslexia to spitting the power of her words; from being conflicted about her sexuality to finding the freedom to explore; from feeling alone to being given the greatest gift by her closest friend. A coming of age story inspired by Dizzee Rascal’s seminal album, Boy in da Corner.

Although horses can be worked without them or with substitutes, a bridle with one or two bits can add extra finesse. The bridle allows you to communicate and control your mount. For it to work properly, you need to select the bridle carefully according to the needs of you and your horse as well as the type of performance you expect. It must also be assembled correctly. Although there are many styles of bridles, the procedures for assembling and using them are similar. The three basic parts of a bridle All bridles have three basic parts: bit, reins and headstall (Figure 1). The bit is the primary means of communication. The reins allow you to manipulate the bit and also serve as a secondary means of communica- tion. The headstall holds the bit in place and may apply Figure 1. A bridle consists of a bit, reins and headstall. pressure to the poll.
