I performed Make Do and Mend for the third time with Katherine Johnson on Saturday night at
The Basement in Brighton. We were one of the many acts performing at the "Supper Cub" night which included art performance, music and poetry. Our slot was for an hour and a half where we frantically tried to fix the mess the audience had made-the Brighton audience certainly did not hold back on the map destroying! Our washing line of wet maps were at the top of the amphitheater which took a lot of exertion to climb up to the top and do our duty. The line of destroyed maps started to look like rows of frayed bunting, quite apt in the run up to the Royal Wedding but also another layer of meaning that runs through the piece of damage and repair. All in all a good night, excellent venue for our work and a great platform for artists or anyone involved in the creative scene. We even managed to enjoy the weather and have a little paddle in the sea!
