3 Ring Circus - Red Lodge Presents In Association With Sensoria
Enjoy three amazing artists playing three shows all on the same night.
There are three small venues all with a very different atmosphere:
Trafalgar Warehouse, an old industrial warehouse in the centre of Sheffield
Upper Chapel, beautiful ornate chapel close to the Crucible theatre in Sheffield
The Drama Studio, the University drama studio, little used for music but a fantastic little theatre
Each artist acts as the opening act in a venue, plays 40 minutes stripped down/acoustic set then jumps into a waiting car outside which will speed them to the next venue.
And the same again to the last venue. So each artist becomes the opener, middle act and headline – and they say democracy doesn’t work!
And the audience sits still, maybe has another pint, has a chat in between whilst the artists break all speed restrictions in order to get to the next show.
The only catch is no one knows what order the artists will appear at which venue. So it’s pot luck. But the important thing is you get to see Richard Hawley, John Grant and Bill Ryder-Jones all on the same bill in the most intimate surroundings.
