SUMMARY:BEING JOHN SMITH
DESCRIPTION:A deceptively wry and deeply felt work by the English avant-garde legend- Jesse Cumming\, Toronto International Film Festival \nAfter enduring many decades of embarrassment and discomfort\, the artist John Smith finally admits to the negative impact that the commonest name in the English-speaking world has had on his psyche. Peppered with disparate fragments of autobiography\, Being John Smith (2024) takes us on a confessional journey that reveals just how important a name can be. \nBorn in 1952 in Walthamstow\, Smith has won international renown for his quietly humorous work\, which often plays with the viewer’s narrative expectations\, and involves subtle political critique.\n14 May – 21 June\nOpen Wednesday to Saturday\, 10am to 4pm\nSaturday screenings continue until 8pm (except 24 May)\nScreenings begin on the hour and half hour\nFree\, all welcome \nJohn Smith will give a talk at CAST on Thursday 12 June\, preceded by a CAST Café supper from 6pm. Tickets are available now. \nFilm still John Smith Being John Smith\, 2024. HD Video\, 27 minutes © John Smith. Image courtesy the artist and Kate MacGarry Gallery.

SUMMARY:Pride & Prejudice
DESCRIPTION:by Illyria\nSaturday 14th June at 7.30pm\n“It is a truth universally acknowledged\, that a single man in possession of a good fortune\, must be in want of a wife.” Mrs Bennet certainly thinks so\, contriving to find suitable husbands for her five daughters. Thank heavens Lizzy\, her second daughter\, finds disdainful Mr Darcy detestable! Or does she…? Can she see beyond his pride – and could he overcome her prejudice – to consider a possible future together? \nFollowing seven sell-out seasons of this sparkling adaptation\, award-winning Illyria returns to celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday in style. Bring a picnic and enjoy her at her vibrant\, forthright\, bitchy best!
