Have a look here for the lead organiser chatting about it if that is better than reading!
Here is a run-down of what's on offer:
Friday night concert from Georgie and Akeim, mesmerising double looper with harp, beatbox, voices, all improvised of course! Support from Roadhouse, dance improvisation from founding duo Lewys Holt and Eleanor Sikorski
