Centrepiece 2012 brings together the collective talents of thirty designer-mak- ers. Designers Andrea Korsgen and Isabella Hart will be returning to the Midlands just in time for the event following a visit to Southern India to share their skills - estab- lishing a jewellery partnership with Mercy Mission welfare society in the process. An annual event at Birmingham’s Symphony Hall, Centrepiece offers visitors an opportuni- ty to purchase a range of unique, locally designed items, and this year runs from 14 November to 23 December.

Marcus will play Seaweed Stubbs - the son of DJ Motormouth Maybelle and love inter- est of Penny Pingleton - when the production stops off at the Birmingham Hippodrome in May. He will be joined by Waterloo Rd actor Mark Benton, who’ll assume the role of the larger-than-life Edna Turnblad. Ex-EastEnder Lucy Benjamin stars as the scheming Velma Von Tussle, while new- comer Freya Sutton takes the role of big-haired teenager Tracy Turnblad. Of his forthcoming role, Marcus said: “I can’t express how thrilled I am to be joining the tour of Hairspray. It’s been a pretty amazing year for me, and now to be cast in my dream role feels like a new part of the adventure!

In 2010, the former Wolverhampton Grammar School pupil received a very unwelcome thirtieth birthday present - heart failure. Having battled back from the brink of death, Richard - armed with a pen and pacemaker - started writing about the experience of living with a condi- tion that will ‘almost certainly kill him’. The resulting work of theatre, Richard Tyrone Jones’s Big Heart, received much critical acclaim when it appeared at the 2012 Edinburgh Fringe, and shows at the Arena Theatre, Wolverhampton, on 28 November as part of a UK-wide tour. Michael Jackson in Birmingham... Cirque du Soleil’s Michael Jackson The Immortal World Tour is to visit Birmingham next year following an acclaimed run at the O2 in London. The production, which is primarily aimed at Jackson’s army of long-standing fans, has been described by our What’s On reviewer as ‘a visual delight’, with ‘the troupe stunning the audience with their synchronicity, aerial acrobat- ics, animal impersonations and light fantastic firework display’. Michael Jackson The Immortal World Tour stops off at the National Indoor Arena on Tuesday Staffordshire craft show 26 March, with tickets, starting at £40, now available.

As well as a lot of awful footballer autobiographies. In this crowded market it’s important to try to make your book leap from the crowd like Sergio Ramos at a corner and demand attention. A catchy, interesting title can help significantly with that. On the other hand, if you’re a footballer, you’re already instantly recognisable to anybody who might buy and read it anyway, and you have access to a loyal fanbase that consistently proves itself willing to part with hard-earned money for any old rubbish they are served up (bad performances, third kits, club shop tat etc.), so why bother? And not bothering is very much the watchword for many players who clearly think that a nice snap and a simple title will do. Hence the plethora of ‘My Story’, ‘My Life in Football’ or ‘My Autobiography’ efforts clogging up the shelves. Surely we can do better than that? We’re not saying everyone needs to call their book Snod This for a Laugh,1 but come on.

    “There is no greater advert for London as a creative, multicultural, party-loving city than Lovebox” - The Times Overveiw Introduction Lovebox is London’s own festival. Over the past 11 years, it has been embraced by the capital’s most stylish and influential party people and cemented it’s place at the heart of London’s bristling social summer calendar. No festival better captures the inclusiveness and multicultural beauty that London represents or the cultural breadth and depth that makes London first among its worldwide City equals. A dozen summers since it first set sail on Clapham Common, 2014 heralds a new chapter in the ever-evolving story of Lovebox. From Roxy Music to Snoop Dogg, from the music of Manu Chao to the flamboyance of Florence and the Machine, Victoria Park has hosted a decade of sun-drenched shows under the Lovebox banner. This coming July, Lovebox is being joined by Secret Productions (co-organisers of Wilderness and Secret Garden Party 2009-2013). In doing so, a larger family is being built to choreograph a new creative vision for Lovebox 2014. Now spanning two days, an urban revival is once again on its way. Lovebox is returning as a true celebration of festival culture, right in the heart of the City. Demographic Demographic Core - 18–35 Fans of all genres of live music who also enjoy going to clubs, gigs and festivals with friends, highly engaged with technology, media savvy, with an interest in arts and culture ABC1/B2 Male/ Female: 50% / 50% Total attendance 2013 – 70,000 Location Victoria Park boasts a perfect location, set between Bethnal Green, Hackney and Bow, three of the capital’s most socially dynamic and creative quarters.
