Allotment #4

May 21, 2010

Allotment #4 : 29th & 30th of May @ Govan Cross Shopping Centre : 8pm : £5

Tapehead are going to be playing 3 improv sets each night with a few special guests spread across them, including members of dBass, The One Ensemble & Moon Unit. I think we’re going to be trying to create a bit of synergy between the music & live looksees provided by visual artists Fergus Dunnet, Justin Eade & Jenny Soep.

We like to jam. We’re going to jam.

Allotment is a pretty special event run by The National Theatre of Scotland.

Here’s what they’re saying to it:

Allotment is back for the final time! This time we’re making more games, intimate experiences, live music and performances than ever before. With a total of 16 groups of artists in the shop and over 3 secret locations it’s going to be an extra hot ticket.

Dbass and Inspector Tapehead will be playing live. There will be a human powered carousel made by George Thompson and Jen Sykes, which is a bit like a roundabout if you can brave a spin after visiting the bar. You could fall in love with a stranger through a scientific Love Calculator. Paul Maguire (who made the giant floor Pong game in Allotment 2) is creating a Text Adventure for twitter style social networking. Robbie Thomson and Colin Ferguson (who created the rain and the pianos in the last Allotment) are working on a secret site in Govan with… robots!
