SUMMARY:Rising Voices Special Edition
DESCRIPTION:RISING VOICES is a Bournemouth University and Arts University Bournemouth production\, directed by Dr. Aanka Batta\, with Brad Gyori as lead researcher. Rising Voices is a poetry showcase of Dorset based writers of colour from across the spectrum of migration and immigration: asylum seekers\, immigrants\, second and third generation people of colour \, and mixed heritage people of colour. The writers have developed their work through a series of workshops on decoloniality\, covering topics such as racialized trauma\, performing within coloniality and world literatures and languages. \nWhile diversity representation in the arts in our area has been growing\, the initiatives are almost never diversity-led. Rising Voices is a diversity-led initiative\, with Aanka as director\, who herself is an immigrant. The initiative is designed to increase visibility for writers of colour\, poetic forms from other languages\, and collective awareness building on matters of racial politics. Since its launch in Spring 2023\, Rising Voices has already been booked by the Wilkswood Reggae Festival\, Hope FM radio and received mention by the BBC Solent Radio and by Bournemouth Writing Festival. \nIn this special edition\, Rising Voices brings an opportunity for Boscombe to hear poetry from local writers of colour\, and engage them in a Q & A on their lived experience. \nCome talk all things migration- in Hindi\, Arabic\, Urdu! \nPlease book a free ticket.  \nListen to some members of the Rising Voices here on Hope FM. \nImage credit – Aanka Batta

SUMMARY:Iranian Cinema Evening
DESCRIPTION:An Iranian cinema evening featuring two films directed by Shirin Neshat & Shoja Azari\, Land of Dreams and Looking for Oum Kulthum.\n\n\nShirin Neshat & Shoja Azari\n \nLand of Dreams (2021)\, directed by Shirin Neshat & Shoja Azari – 110 minsLand of dreams follows the story of an America in a near future that has closed its borders becoming more insular than ever. \nSimin is an Iranian American woman on a journey to discover what it means to be a free American. She works for the Census Bureau which\, in an effort to control its citizens\, has begun a program to record their dreams. Unaware of this devious plot\, Simin is torn between her compassion for those whose dreams she is recording and a truth she must find within. \n“The whole film is about this Iranian woman mediating between her Iranian past and the American culture she was raised in. But it is also about mediating between her interior life and external life\, and dream versus reality. There’s a lot to do with crossing boundaries. Simin is a very strange character who doesn’t really belong here or there. For me\, it was an interesting idea to develop. For example\, her relationship to the Iranian community is only through social media\, where she uploads videos of herself\, but social media also furthers this distance. If you speak Farsi\, you will understand that she has an accent\, so she’s not really fluent in the language. But she’s also not quite American.” Shirin Neshat\, Art Review article\, 2021 \nLanguage: English\, Farsi (with English subtitles) \nLooking for Oum Kulthum (2017)\, directed by Shirin Neshat & Shoja Azari – 90 minsA film within a film\, Shirin Neshat’s Looking for Oum Kulthum tells the story of Mitra\, an ambitious Iranian director\, mother and wife in her late 40s\, who is working on her dream project: a film about the life of legendary Egyptian singer and diva Oum Kulthum (1904-1975)\, whose music and extraordinary personality are still loved by millions of Middle Easterners. \nMitra’s film explores the struggles\, sacrifices and the price of Oum Kulthum’s success as a female artist in a male-dominated society. However\, having left her family behind for her career and in the efforts to capture the essence of Oum Kulthum as a myth\, a woman and an artist\, Mitra’s own struggles blend with those of the singer as she finds herself caught in an emotional and artistic breakdown. \nLanguages: Arabic\, Persian\, German and English (with English subtitles) \n \nFilm timings: \n6.30pm-8.20pm – Land of Dreams.  \nShort break  \n8.40pm – 10.15pm – Looking for Oum Kulthum \n \nTickets:PWYC Tickets: £7.50 / Solidarity ticket £12 / Free tickets available \n\n\n\nTicket info: We want to keep prices to a minimum so as many people can come as possible\, so we are offering a pay what you can system\, as well as solidarity tickets for those who are able to pay a little more.  \nFree tickets are also available for those with low income\, outsider artists\, asylum seekers\, refugees and vulnerable migrants. \nBEAF Arts Co is a not-for-profit organisation. All profits from our ticket sales go back into supporting our work\, community and artists. \n \nRefunds: If you can no longer make this event\, then please contact us a week in advance of the event to request one. Refunds after then will not be accepted and please note Eventbrite’s fee cannot be refunded. \n \nAccess info: B.A.D. is on the ground floor and has wide doors for access. We are currently fundraising to build accessible toilets\, in the meantime accessible toilets are available in the sovereign centre. \n \nGetting to us: If you are coming by foot or by bus\, take the M2 bus and get off near Boscanova if coming from Southbourne or next to Aldi if coming from Poole and Bournemouth.

SUMMARY:Disneyland in Dagenham
DESCRIPTION:Join born storyteller Scott Lavene on his UK tour supporting his upcoming album\, Disneyland In Dagenham. \nIn the 1980s\, the Walt Disney Company were considering building their first European theme park not on the outskirts of Paris\, but in Dagenham\, Essex. In his youth\, Scott Lavene used to pick up drugs from a dodgy flat overlooking the proposed site. Disney and Dagenham were never a good fit\, he thought\, as he stood on the balcony one evening as the sun set\, awaiting an overdue hash delivery. \nIt never happened of course – perhaps the multinational corporation were put off by the sewage works and car factories that Mickey Mouse and Goofy would have counted as their neighbours. So he recalls on the title track of his exceptional third album Disneyland In Dagenham\, monologuing in warm deadpan over a wandering acoustic guitar. It encapsulates his conflicted feelings about the county he was raised in. “A cowboy kind of place\, a bit rough around the edges\,” as he puts it. \nIt’s changed a lot since then. Filming the video for the song\, he and his sister took a drive around their old haunts along the A13. “The sewage works don’t smell anymore and they’re now calling Rainham ‘East London’\, which is hilarious. It made me grateful for my past\, for the shit we could get away with back then.” \n“Full of great poignant\, funny and sad songs that display the man’s great writing talents. At times he’s David Bowie\, Syd Barrett and Ian Dury at the same time.” – Louder Than War \n“Mordant\, spivvy\, pop-punk TMI gabble about the urgency and futility of it all from lyrical Essex motormouth.” – MOJO \n“Think Baxter Dury’s warped kid brother.” – The Times \nAbout Scott Lavene \nLavene is one of the original members of The Outsiders Project\, performing in the first theatre production\, The Vodka Hunters in 2019\, and leading on the creative writing workshop programme. A born storyteller\, through his records and his writing\, Scott Lavene has long been populating a hallucinogenic world of his own creation with ne’er do wells\, ragamuffins and eccentrics. With his exceptional third album Disneyland In Dagenham set for release this May via Nothing Fancy\, Lavene heads out on the road again\, having just done a circuit of the UK in support of The Hold Steady’s Craig Finn. \nContent warnings – Expect strong language and references to drugs \nPlease note that this performance is an alcohol-free space. We won’t be offering drinks and please do not bring your own drinks in. Our theatre in B.A.D. is part of our Safe Homes Network. \nGetting to B.A.D. Theatre \nIf you are coming by bus: Take the M2 bus and get off near Boscanova if coming from Southbourne\, or next to Aldi if coming from Poole and Bournemouth. Walk along the highstreet and please come to the main entrance at B.A.D.\, directly opposite Costa. \nIf you are coming by train: Pokesdown for Boscombe train station is a 15-20 minute walk to B.A.D. Turning right out of the station\, walk straight down Christchurch Road until you reach Marvo Mysteries Escape Room\, where you will cross over onto the pedestrianised precinct and continue walking past Boscanova cafe to B.A.D. \nIf you are coming by car: You can reach us via the A35 and Ashley Road.

SUMMARY:The Lock-In
DESCRIPTION:The Outsiders Project \nTues 18th June\, 7pm-8.30pm\, B.A.D. \nAn evening of brand new writing\, spoken word\, and music from our outstanding outsider artists. \nThe Lock-In was first created during the pandemic as a way for our writers to safely gather and share what they had been working on independently. It quickly became apparent that these evenings were more than just somewhere to read our work – but a space to connect\, share ideas\, learn from each other\, and develop confidence in performing; taking our writing from page to stage. The Lock-Ins have now become an important part of the work we do\, and have grown to a place where we are proud to welcome audiences. The pieces you’ll see are seeds of ideas that form part of much more ambitious work: One-person shows; Novels; Poetry collections; Albums. Anything is possible. \nExpect new writing\, spoken word\, music\, and uncensored stories from unheard voices. \nThe Outsiders Project Lock-In’s are funded through the Lottery Community Fund.
