Actors: Zosha and Faith, Photo: METbrand (www.metbrand.com) The paradox that is London Bridge. It is the heart of London where people come to enjoy the city, the many performers along the embankment and the art and entertainment in the various venues in the area. Yet, it is an area where people 'collide'. Market traders drink back to back with London's design community, while pin stripe 'suits' bump along with various down and outs. Everyday in the area we see people 'collisions', these are good, bad, sometimes with anger, often with love. We are looking for various performers interested in being part of this visual experience. It will be photographed and documented as part of the London Fringe which continues through the year. Please contact Alex at - metbrand@metstudio.com July 18 in visual-art Calling all performers .. Collisions project today .. meet 12 noon outside Wheatsheaf Pub Natalie Amber is helping organise the Collisions project now. Meeting outside the Wheatsheaf Pub on Southwark Street. The project will have various acts, dancers, comedians, magicians, street theatre iand hopefully you! The collisions will all happen spontaneously around the people outside the market and the various pubs and restaurants. The event will be photographed and filmed by the creatives at MET Studio (www.metstudio.com), METbrand (www.metbrand.com) and John Ross photography (www.johnross.co.uk) and the images will be used as an online gallery and as promotion material for the festival. There may also be further printed records created in a variety of formats. We also want to use the event as a way of you promoting your show, whilst the festival is in full swing, to a captivated audience. So if you want to come down and give out flyers, introduce yourself to a potential new audience or hopefully to come down and a be a part of our event by doing some of your act on the streets please get in touch.

At the heart of London the spreading city, crawling across the river, hits head on with the south. The lights of the West End and grandeur of Westminster radiate eastwards crashing elegantly into the grit of the east end. Market traders drink back to back with London's design community, whilst pin stripe suits bump heads with various down and outs. The new shard of glass building is now colliding with Borough Market and winning the battle. Everyday in the area we see people collide here, sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes with anger and sometimes with new found love." Brief For one day only we will arrive at Borough Market and you will create your collision. In pairs, in groups or on your own we want to create as many collisions as we can. With actors, comedians, members of the public, market traders, workers, tourists, homeless people - everybody who is part of the area. We will record these collisions and hope to display them in various mediums. Only you will know what your collision is and when it begins. Some of the collisions we record will be real and will be created by you and each will be very different. People will meet old friends, new friends, enemies and lovers they will kiss, argue, embrace, shout, dance, push, sing and jump for joy. What will be your collision that reflects the passion and conflict of the area? Art Director: Alexander McCuaig from Met Studios , a leading design studio based near the bridge. June 07 in visual-art Photography Competition: London, Glamour and Grime Celebrate an extraordinary place to live - London. One of the biggest, busiest metropolises in the world, this city has everything you can imagine. What makes our city so alive? It's the 7 million people who live in the area, the rich diversity of lifestyles, the mingling of old and new in design and architecture, the random springing up of shops and buildings and offices. It's all here. Turn your photographic eye to our amazing city and show us what you see. We are looking for photographs that show the glamour, or the grime. Nothing in between. more May 20 in visual-art |

| Times Saturday review: "It seems there is nothing not being attempted during the ambitious, two-week run of the first London Bridge Festival, a would-be attempt at the capital's version of the Edinburgh Fringe. Comedy, film, art, dance, music - you name it, it's happening. That might suggest that the quality control knob has been torn off and tossed into the Thames - happily, it hasn't. Drawing heavily on the historic locale, there will be plays at the Rose Theatre, Bankside (home to early works by Shakespeare and Marlowe), the Southwark Playhouse, and the wonderful Old Operating Theatre, a museum that does what it says on the tin, housing the oldest operating Theatre in London. It's well worth getting along to see something as well as the shows, the locations are a knockout. Various venues, London Bridge. " |
