Healthy Eating Message from Performing Youth

H. Makin Theatre, Pilgrim Street, Liverpool on
Wednesday and Thursday 13th & 14th June, 7pm

Young people from Toxteth based drama group Perform
L8, Bellerive Catholic Girls School, Harthill Youth
Centre and Runcorn Performing Arts College will be
teaming up to send a message out about Healthy Eating.

The production - "The Healthy Eating Show" - which is
being supported by the Local Network for Children
Fund, will feature dance, drama and song all with a
food theme.

The cast, all between the ages of 11 and 18, have
worked with Performance Workshop Leaders over the past
two months, bringing their own slant to a topical
subject.

"There's a lot of humour in the sketches and plays so
far," says Su Burke, Project Leader with Perform L8,
"but that's not to say there isn't a lot of important
points being made."

This view is echoed by Pat Crawford, working with
young people from Harthill Youth Centre. "There's a
growing awareness amongst Young People we've worked
with that eating isn't just something to be taken for
granted. Our aim has been to make the young people
think about the issues relating to Diet and Dieting."

"The Healthy Eating Show" will be performed at the Joe
H. Makin Theatre, Pilgrim Street, Liverpool on
Wednesday and Thursday 13th & 14th June, 7pm. Tickets
are £2/£1 concessions and the show is open to the
public, young people being especially welcome.....but
avoid disappointment by booking.

Tickets can be obtained from 0771 684 8894

on Mathew Street in the Cavern Quarter, next to ‘The Grapes’ pub.)

Our already legendary eclectic mix of musical styles will be back.

For those of you that missed out, the first night included moving Celtic harp from Rebecca Sharp, some passionate Catalan songs by Xavier Bosch and a show stopping performance of Edith Piaf songs, by Rachael Russell, all rounded of with a storming, improvised set by Surinder Sandhu (sarangi) and Miles Levin (drums), joined by ‘Lost Voices’, very irregular, resident band.

So... Expect more of the same, and less of the ‘same old song’...

'Lost Voices 2’

A laid back atmosphere, a late-night bar... beautiful music and some lamp-lit magic.

Following on from their successful colladboration last year with The World According To..., life seen through the surreal eyes of two ECHO journalists, the Comedy Festival has the pleasure of announcing their sequel. A collection of innovative cartoons with words by Peter Grant and illustrations by Tony Hall.

The exhibition will trace Liverpool's 800 year history through Grant and Hall admit 'we have mixed fact with fiction'.

Phil Key, of the Daily Post, said of their work: 'They have an unusual take on life and it shows in these warm and humourous creations.'

Comedian Stan Boardman said: 'I actually bought a couple of their cartoons so to get me to part with my money - they have to be good.'

Says Grant: 'We work like Elton John and Bernie Taupin. I write the words and fax them to Tony and he works on his computer. Mind you, we haven't got their money.'
