With just over a week to go until the return of Latitude, the Thursday night entertainment has been announced.
Lake Stage – 10 PM: Hitchcocks - The Lodger (Hitchcock's very first silent b&w thriller in 1929)
Around the woods and the lake – 7 PM: The Irrepressibles - The Irrepressibles will perform collectively a set of originally composed madrigals, laments, and energetic refrains adorned by a littering of dancers.
Poetry Arena – 6 PM: John Hegley, Luke Wright, Asile 16 + friends, Niall O'Sullivan, John Osborne, Joe Dunthorne, Tim Clare, Yanny Mac & Pikey Paddy, Kat Francois, Tom Sutton, and Anne Pigalle.
Music and Film Arena – 8.15 PM: Daft Punk 'Electroma Film', directed by the duo behind Daft Punk and featuring music from Brian Eno, Curtis Mayfair, and Sebastien Tellier. Also Beautiful and the Dammed DJ set, described as silent movies, dressing up and varied music.
Literary Arena – 7 PM: weird and wonderful shorts from the innovative and original project, Perverted By Language as part of Vox 'N' Roll. The project featured twenty three writers who all chose one song by The Fall and used it as inspiration for their own short stories. As you might imagine topics range wildly from mechanical ducks, shark women that taste of liquorice, and perverted sexual shenanigans in office spaces. Plus Guy Pratt, former bassist to amongst others, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Jimmy Page, The Smiths, RoxyMusic, Pink Floyd and Bryan Ferry, brings his new show'My
Bass And Other Animals'.
Latitude takes place in Suffolk between July 12-15, and tickets are on sale priced at £112 for the weekend. Day tickets cost £45.
