Jenny Verson
"Dr. Skip Justice Tallahassee presents Power: An Introductory Lecture on the History and Practice of Civil Disobedience"
In the final days before the elections in the United States Power is a true show for fools. Using humor, found object puppetry and clowning Power explores the history of civil disobedience from Rosa Parks to Rachel Corrie, culminating in a juicy explanation of exactly how the elections were fixed in the United States in 2000. Performed by expatriate live artist Jennifer Verson.

Saturday 30th October 3-8PM

Karmadillo
The music of Karmadillo is based on the sound of a traditional yet fun South American instrument mixed with British pop and rock melodies. Sometimes, it'll make you think of George Formby winning the Eurovision Song Contest. At others, the type of sound you'd like to hear on a Caribbean beach relaxing with a rum and coke. There is plenty of room for melancholy and sad sounds as well - the charango can sometimes produce beautiful, haunting notes.
Poetry
Guy Pride
Spoken word and poetry.


Saturday 6TH November 3-8PM

Yap
A regular voice at Speakers Corner and performance venues like the 411, Yap is a fusion of Kant, Mill, Thoreau, Talam Acey and Malcolm X. His incendiary content and explicit delivery transfix everyone from Slipknot fans to academics, from young offenders to economists, forcing audiences to question their value system in a modern world. Planet Yap
Mr Gee
Poetry from the London performace poet and DJ.
Tom Ireson & Stephan Hays
