The Throw

WHERE RABBITS AND SPOTLIGHTS COLLIDE



The Throw gives creatives an opportunity to showcase their wares to new audiences. It also gives audiences an opportunity to get up close and personal with the people whose music, books, photographs, paintings, pottery — anything that’s created — they consume.



Hosted by author Lorraine Horsley, this edition of The Throw takes in live music, comedy, spoken word, readings and interplay between creatives that is more revealing than a nude swim at the beach in the depths of winter.



“We want to showcase artists as well as their arts in places where people can relax, have a drink, if they want to, and see the personal side of creators,” said Lorraine Horsley. “We created a show that will be fun, revealing and give the audience plenty of opportunity to get involved.”If you ever wanted to know…



Why an author would imagine being eaten by their dogs… What creatives actually do to earn a crust and how they reconcile their two (or more) identities… How a woman gets inside the mind of a misogynist… Where weird non-love songs come from…



… and much, much more, The Throw is for you.



Creators at this event:



Lorraine Horsley - MC and Author Gav Healy - Musician and Raconteur Lisa Ellery - Crime Writer and Lawyer Andrea Thompson - Author and Music Journalist.



At the end of the show, you will get an opportunity to meet the creatives and buy personally signed copies of their work. After all, Christmas comes around every December!
