'From Redditch With Love'
22nd - 26th September. Opening Night - Monday 22nd 6pm - 8pm

12pm - 4pm

Tom Poultney is an artist working in the field of audio visual art. Adapting the original purpose of machinery, technology and imagery allows Poultney to subvert the expected narrative of the moving image and refocus attention on the insignificant incidents often ignored or overlooked in films of a more conventional nature.

At Holy Trinity Poultney will be presenting 'From Redditch With Love' a piece that utilises pre-recorded footage of actors intergrated with live feed from multiple CCTV cameras and a live soundtrack repositioning the performance within the real environment of the church.

 

'Light Night'
Fri 12th October 2007

7.00pm - dawn

We are pleased to be hosting 3 events for the Leeds-wide festival 'Light Night'. All events are free and doors are open at 6.30pm with the first performance starting at 7.00pm - 'Lavater - The Shadow of History. For more information on other events please see the Light Night website.

7.00 - 8.00pm 'Lavater - The Shadow of History'
The eminent physiognomist Johann Caspar Lavater (1741-1802) returns for one night only to reclaim his place at the centre of European culture, armed with magic lantern, silhouette apparatus and a curious tale of photo-chemical experiment. Enter a world of shadows and be enthralled as the secrets of human character are revealed by unique analysis. Take part in the demonstrations.

8.30 - 9pm 'Night Lights'
One of six short plays will be performed at Holy Trinity. Specially written for it's location by one of Leeds newest writers, it will be a chance to see Holy Trintiy as never before.

9pm - dawn 'Hydrologic'
Steven Allbutt & Phill Harding have created an immersive installation piece whose transitional nature brings into focus the acoustic and sculptural qualities of Holy Trinity Church, through a cyclical journey of light and sound. From its beginnings of dark intensity to its endings in the dawning of a new day — eventually everything will be washed away. Come prepared to stay.
