The Chip Shop (2)

The last appearance of 'The Chip Shop' at the London Word Festival will be tomorrow night (Keep Printing & Carry On). The first set will kick off at 7.20pm with Murray Macaulay doing an introduction to Sister Corita, the fantastic Screenprinting Nun (followed by a printing demostration in the Chip Shop).

The organisers have announced that the first 60 villagers through the door will be given a free ration book - this entitles you to a special print-themed cake from the Great Cake Escape! Also there will be some Universettee events starting before the first set, not to mention the "Dig for Printery" potato-printing allotment.

Later on, there'll also be some music from Darren Hayman and comedy from Jo Neary, each set accompanied with its own live print in the Chip Shop.

Doors 6pm, tickets £8, venue is Stoke Newington International Airport. As the London Word Festival writes on their website: "...times are hard and the cake is rationed – arrive early to avoid disappointment."

An article about the Henningham Family Press and the Chip Shop appeared today in the Independent; here's a link to the article.
