Once again FEATS has fallen victim to the global health crisis, and we shall not be seeing each other in Brussels.
However, our friends at ECC have come up with a wizard wheeze to compensate partially for this loss. The virtual FEATS fringe will take place on 14, 15 and 16 May, starting 19.15 each day. A chance to see video presentations by a number of regular (and less regular) FEATS participating groups.
And the good news is that it’s free of charge on a screen near you! You do need to register, though, so put your name down by following these links:
Friday 14 May • Saturday 15 May • Sunday 16 May
