Little Village of Second Chances by Gina Hollands

Surely everyone deserves a second chance?

Author bio

Originally from Yorkshire, Gina now lives by the sea in West Sussex with her husband and son. When she’s not working in her job in marketing and PR, or writing her latest book, Gina can be found dancing everything from lindy hop to salsa, shopping (she loves clothes far too much for her own good), eating out (she hates washing up far too much for her own good), or relaxing, which generally involves reading a book someone else has written or indulging in her new hobby of learning to play the piano. She has a sneaky suspicion she may be a musical genius in the making, but isn’t about to give up the day job just yet.

SHADES OF PEMBERLEY: BLACK GIRLS LOVE JANE AUSTEN TOO

Hotbed Theatre Festival., Cambridge.

By Elizabeth Moynihan with Sybille Wehrli Produced by Éala Productions

Shades of Pemberley is inspired by memories of the performer’s teenage years, and her own personal journey from Cameroon to Strasbourg via the suburbs of Paris. The young Blanche’s loneliness finds an outlet in an unlikely obsession with Jane Austen.

Blanche’s imagination takes her to the cossetted, corseted world of Georgian England. Gossip, romantic disappointments, and the triumphs of dispossessed young gentlewomen resonate deeply with the disaffected Blanche. Her own isolation finds comfort in stories of a time when young women, rich or poor, had little agency of their own.

Performed by Sybille Wehrli Directed by Clara Onyemere Original score by Fergus Cahillane

Fri 16th: 6pm & 8.30pm (45 minutes) Venue: J3 | Tickets: £8/£7

Blurb 

When four high school children, and one dog, suffer at the hands of online media they come up with a plan to show everyone how little they should trust what they read on the internet (actually, the dog only supplies moral support). They launch their own news site that details amazing, shocking, fascinating, utterly believable but totally untrue stories. Their intention is always to come clean, and never to target anyone in particular, but success goes to their heads. Before long they are enmeshed in a world of spies and aliens. What’s more, they have a sneaky and rather desperate journalist on their tail.

The event was recorded on the 31st of May at 19:30.
