The Midnight Run
In the Midnight motto, ‘star’ can be taken literally, or as a metaphor for art, artists, experiences and the people in the shadow of the city, in which case it takes on a beauty and importance:
The Midnight Run //
Cause we can't see stars for fumes
we turn to smashed glass, believing
shards shine like constellations do.

THE ISLINGTON WORD FESTIVAL MINI MIDNIGHT RUN
As part of Islington Word Festival, I am curating a Mini Midnight Run, in celebration of the literature and life of the borough. Writer-participants sign up with Spread the Word in advance, and we will be joined on this moonlit jaunt by five other commissioned artists (film-maker, photographer, illustrator, poet, theatre maker) local to the borough.
Throughout the event, which moves to different locations in the borough as the night unfolds, we will play, write, dance, create and share ideas inspired by the locations we visit. For those with a sense of adventure!
Saturday 18 May // 6pm - Midnight // £8 // Info: http://bit.ly/ZMH1Lv
This is what a Midnight run looks like.

Incredible. Frightening. The city manufactures copies of us all.
