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.

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.

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: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.

SUMMARY:John Healy Q & A - cancelled
DESCRIPTION:We are sorry to have to let you know that due to unforeseen circumstances this event is now cancelled.  \nHowever\, following the amazing documentary BARBARIC GENIUS about his life\, we will have a discussion about his work and life. Nell Leyshon\, Artistic Director of The Outsiders Project will be joined by outsider artists Gary Pierre\, who at one point led a very similar life to John. \nA rare and exclusive chance to hear writer and outsider John Healy talk about his world famous memoir\, The Glass Arena. John is going to be interviewed by Nell Leyshon\, Artistic Director of The Outsiders Project. \n  \nJohn Healy was born in London in 1942. After a troubled childhood he became a boxer and according to his trainer the late great George Francis\, ‘Healy at sixteen was a stylist with concussive power in both hands\, he was tipped for the top but unfortunately it was drink in the end that carried the knockout blow.’ \nAlready an alcoholic by his late teens John was pressed into the army and went awol – on recapture he was transferred to a penal battalion at a military prison. Dishonorably discharged onto the street he spent 15 years in the violent subculture of a wino jungle. During one of his prison sentences a fellow prisoner Harry Collins known as the Brighton fox taught him to play chess. Showing a remarkable aptitude for the game he won ten major tournaments. In 1986 living hand to mouth on a council estate at Kings Cross he wrote his ‘savage masterpiece’ The Grass Arena which won the Pen Ackerley Award\, Europe’s top prize for literary autobiography. ‘One of the great works of the 20th century’ Mathew Sweet BBC radio 4.

SUMMARY:A Night Of Music and Stories
DESCRIPTION:Twisted ballads and odd pop from BBC 6 Music regular\, Scott Lavene. Stories collected from a wandering life full of unpredictable humour..\n\n\nScott Lavene\nA master storyteller\, Tom Robinson\, BBC 6 Music \n  \nThink Baxter Dury’s warped younger brother\, The Times \nScott Lavene is a storyteller who can capture all the madness\, joy and frustration of life while singing about worms writhing in the ground. Lavene’s been in bands since his teens\, but only really located the voice that makes his albums Broke and Milk City Sweethearts so remarkable – that combination of wry observation\, humble wisdom\, unguarded vulnerability and unpredictable humour – in a music workshop for alcoholics and addicts\, long after he’d bid farewell to childhood dreams of pop stardom\, and the ghosts and demons that accompany those dreams. \nWith his stories\, Lavene makes us all feel a little less alone – he’s that voice in our ear who always has a tale more weird\, more tragic\, more funny than our own\, but in whose experiences we can see our own. Laughter\, tears\, madness and redemption reside within his magical songs\, the full spectrum of existence. You’d be a fool to miss out. \nImage ©️ Scott Lavene \nPlease note: 16+ event.

SUMMARY:BEAF 2023 Launch Party
DESCRIPTION:The festival kicks off with our Launch Party on Friday 16 June\, bringing incredible music all the way from Soweto to Boscombe’s 02.\n\n\nFeaturing BCUC\nThe festival kicks off with our Launch Party on Friday 16 June\, bringing incredible music all the way from Soweto to Boscombe’s glorious Victorian music venue\, the O2.  Bantu Continua Uhuru Consciousness (known as BCUC) combines a heady mix of indigenous funk\, hip hop and punk rock energy\, portraying the rich traditions\, rituals and beliefs coming out of Africa. \n“Without a doubt the best live act I saw.” Gilles Peterson \nSoweto based BCUC tackle the harsh realities of the voiceless\, – the plight of the workers at the bottom of the social food chain. The Africa they portray is not poor\, but rich in tradition\, rituals and beliefs. \n“The most impressive newcomers this year.” The Guardian \nA stone’s throw from the church where Desmond Tutu organised the escape of the most wanted anti-Apartheid activists of Soweto\, BCUC rehearses in a shipping container-turned-community restaurant\, where their indomitable outspokenness echoes in a whole new way. Like its elders\, Bantu Continua Uhuru Consciousness sees its music as a hedonistic trance\, but also as a weapon of political and spiritual liberation. \nArtistic heirs to Philip “Malombo” Tabane and Batsumi\, they give contemporary voice to the ancestral traditions of indigenous peoples. Jazz sounds of 1970s and ‘80s productions replaced by hip-hop influences and punk-rock energy\, taking the listener on an intriguing epic journey\, sharing their controversial yet interesting views on modern Africa.  \n“We bring fun and emo-indigenous Afro psychedelic fire from the hood\,” says vocalist Kgomotso Mokone. \nImage ©️ Shudufhadzo Lubengo. \n\nSupported by Harare\nA virtuoso marimbist\, Kuda Matimba was a member of Zimbabwe’s legendary Bhundu Boys\, a groundbreaking force in the African music industry\, as they paved the way for more artists to reach commercial success in Europe and the US. Harare features a groundbreaking line-up\, mixing the buzzing acoustics of the Southern African rich-toned marimba\, mbira\, ringing jingling guitars\, swooping basslines\, irresistible dance rhythms and uplifting vocals. Harare celebrates both the past and the future of African dance music and brings a spectacular mix of Southern African musical styles\, particularly the musical styles of Zimbabwe. Words to the songs are performed in the Shona language of Zimbabwe.   \nImage ©️ Katherine Hannaford \n \nDoors open at 8pm\, Harare starts at 8.30pm. \nAge Restrictions: No under 8s. Under 14 to be accompanied at all times by an adult over 18. For detailed information please vsisit the O2’s website.

SUMMARY:B.A.D. CINEMA PRESENTS: All the Beauty and the Bloodshed
DESCRIPTION:Oscar-winning director Laura Poitras’ portrait of acclaimed artist Nan Goldin is a riveting account of a life defined by art and activism.\n\n\nAbout the event:  \nDoors open from 7pm\, high-street entrance to Boscombe Arts Depot (B.A.D.) on Wednesday 8 March.  \nAbout the film:  \nAll the Beauty and the Bloodshed\, 2022\, (18) directed by Laura Poitras.  \n“The film is riveting and essential.” The Independent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 \nIn All the Beauty and the Bloodshed\, one of the great documentaries about an artist\, any boundaries between activism and art\, art and life\, and life and work are blown open.” ARTnews \nIn 2014\, Goldin was prescribed OxyContin to deal with pain caused by tendonitis in her wrist. Within days she was addicted. Following her recovery\, she began working with campaigners to bring the family behind the drug\, the Sacklers\, to justice. Employing footage previously shot by Goldin and her colleagues\, which records the grassroots campaign as it ups the ante on pressurising major cultural institutions to distance themselves from the Sacklers\, Poitras’ film widens its focus to encompass Goldin’s extraordinary life. It charts her journey from a conservative childhood to her entry into the art world\, becoming a defining figure of the 1970s and 1980s New York art scene\, and along the way creating a landmark work with The Ballad of Sexual Dependency. \nPoitras brings together the various strands of Goldin’s life with impressive clarity. It highlights how Goldin saw no distinction between private and public\, the personal and the political\, and how her perspective on the world was sharpened by both the AIDS and opioid crises. Only the second documentary to win the prestigious Golden Lion award in the Venice Film Festival’s 80-year history\, All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is an enthralling portrait of an artist as activist. \nRunning Time: 122mins \n\n\n\nTicket info:  \nWe want to keep prices to a minimum so as many people can come as possible.
