Something Other Live: On Solidarity

Something Other Live (SOL) is a night of experimental writing and performance and acts as a companion to each themed Chapter published by the Something Other collective. We invite writers, artists and others to present works-in-process that have a relationship to the page, the screen and the body.

The theme for our eighth chapter is On Solidarity, and the night will include live, audio and video work by artists/writers including Tiffany Charrington, Diana Damian Martin, Alan Fielden & Jemima Yong of JAMS, Mary Paterson, Caridad Svich, and Ellen Wiles. For more information please see our website.

SOL is unfunded and unticketed, and nobody gets paid. We collect money on the night for a designated charity related to each chapter's theme. Our chosen charity for the Eighth Chapter: On Solidarity is the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants.
