Manchester international festival 2007!

The worlds first international festival of original, new work. The Industrial Revolution forged the world's first modern city, which in 2007 will launch the world's first international festival of original, new work - created by leading artists from across the spectrum of credible popular culture, innovation and the arts.
Drawing from the city's pivotal role in music, the Festival programme will have a focus on new music - premiering work by established and emerging international musicians. In step with the city's history, the Festival will focus on the important issues and stories of our time, through debates and new commissions. It will also reaffirm the city's 24 hour party spirit by working with the city's clubs, bars, cafes and restaurants.

Many of the Festival's productions and events will world premiere in the city before touring to other international destinations, such as Paris, New York and Berlin. The Festival programme will also feature on National TV and Radio, in newspapers and magazines, on digital platforms and the internet, in books and in cinemas.


Following a series of three trailblazer events presented from late 2005, this city's first biennial festival will launch in July 2007.

Welcome... to the Manchester International Festival

Manchester International Festival boosted city’s economy by £37.6m

Exclusive by Deborah Linton

October 13, 2011

The Manchester International Festival boosted the city’s economy by £37.6m, according to a new report.

The biennial arts event is being hailed a resounding success after exceeding almost every target and attracting more people than ever before.

This year’s festival drew top names including Björk and Snoop Dogg and works by Damon Albarn and Victoria Wood during an 18-day programme this summer.

Attendance was up four per cent on 2009 – from 223,960 to 231,598 – and turnover increased by 19pc on 2009.

The festival also helped to push up hotel occupancy and footfall in the city centre, with international attendance up 126 per cent, according to an independent study going to a Manchester town hall committee.

Councillors will be asked to approve £2m funding for a 2013 festival when they meet next week, as well £500,000 underwriting of expected public sector funding from organisations such as Arts Council England.

The report shows that commercial sponsorship for this year’s festival fell to £2.4m – down from £2.9m in 2009 and £3.3m in 2007.

But this was more than made up for by an increase in so-called ‘co-commissioning’ – where outside organisations pay to share in future profits raised by MIF shows – which rose from £750,000 in 2009 to more than £2m this year, and by a 50pc increase in box office receipts.

Coun Mike Amesbury, Executive Member for Culture and Leisure, said: "This year’s festival was a resounding success and shows it is going from strength to strength despite the difficult economic climate."

Festival director Alex Poots said: "We are very grateful to the council for their unflagging support."

The website has now updated for Manchester International Festival 2013, with the first three events online.

http://www.mif.co.uk/

Kenneth Branagh - Macbeth
The xx - In Residence
The Biospheric Project

Sir Kenneth Branagh heads Manchester festival

Sir Kenneth Branagh and Mercury Prize-winning band The xx will be among the highlights of next year's Manchester International Festival, each promising intimate shows in unusual venues.

Sir Kenneth will play Macbeth for the first time in his career in a deconsecrated church in the city.

It will be his first Shakespeare play for more than a decade.

The xx will play a string of gigs in a secret "enigmatic found space" during the 18-day festival next July.

The event is held every two years and 2013 will be its fourth incarnation. Bjork, Victoria Wood and Damon Albarn were among the star attractions last year.

Sir Kenneth will give 17 performances as Macbeth in a new production by Emmy and Tony award-winning director Rob Ashford.

Regarded as one of the great modern Shakespearean actors, he last appeared in one of the Bard's plays in Richard III at the Sheffield Crucible in 2002.

The xx, who won the Mercury Prize in 2010, will have a residency at the festival, playing for fewer than 100 people at a time.

Festival director Alex Poots said: "We continue to make ambitious and engaged work with some of the world's greatest artists and thinkers, while taking the festival - and our audiences - in new, unexpected and challenging directions."

The event has earned a reputation for staging world-class premieres and one-off events from the worlds of music, theatre and art.

Last year's highlights ranged from the premiere of a show about the life and imagined death of Serbian-born performance artist Marina Abramovic to a stage comedy based around a TV shopping channel starring comedian Johnny Vegas.

The full programme for next year's festival will be announced in February.

It will also include a project examining how to create sustainable food supplies in an era of rising populations and urban living.

An old industrial building in Salford will be converted into an agricultural space filled with experiments in sustainable food, technology and design.

Kenneth Branagh to play Macbeth among church-goers

Manchester festival has honour of actor's first Shakespeare role in 10 years in 'immersive' staging within deconsecrated church

Charlotte Higgins, chief arts writer

The Guardian, Wednesday 14 November 2012 19.50

Unless you count his performance of "the isle is full of noises" speech from The Tempest at the Olympics opening ceremony, it has been a decade since Kenneth Branagh played a Shakespeare role on the stage: that was Richard III at the Crucible in Sheffield.

Next year, however, the actor is to take on one of the most testing parts in the repertoire: Macbeth. And he will do it in the intimate circumstances of a deconsecrated church in Manchester, to an audience of not more than 300 at a time. According to Alex Poots, the director of the Manchester international festival: "It will certainly not be the audience observing the action from a distance, behind the proscenium arch. They'll feel very involved. It will be an immersive experience."

The festival, said Poots, had tempted Branagh through its experience of making work in unconventional spaces and unexpected ways, citing two projects conceived for the 2009 festival: the architect Zaha Hadid designed a pavilion specially for performances of Bach, and It Felt Like A Kiss, a dystopian vision of America, was performed in a derelict office block by theatre company Punchdrunk and documentary maker Adam Curtis.

Rob Ashford, behind acclaimed productions of Anna Christie and A Streetcar Named Desire at London's Donmar Warehouse, is to co-direct Macbeth, along with Branagh, who was knighted this month. In fact intimacy might be regarded as a keynote of the first shows announced for the 2013 festival, which runs from 4 to 21 July.

The xx, the band whose eponymous debut album won the Mercury in 2009, and whose latest, Co-exist, was released to praise this autumn, is to undertake a residency at the festival. Instead of performing one major show, they will play around 17 concerts, each to an audience of not more than 70.

Audience members will be asked to congregate at a meeting point, and will then be conveyed to another secret venue: "We will appeal to our audience's generous sides to keep it a secret," said Poots, referring to those who watched the rehearsals for the Olympics opening ceremony and "saved the surprise".

"In an environment when things are so available – where anyone can get the music they want immediately online – we are thinking about how there is something very precious about the live experience," said Poots. "I sense there is something in the air, with everything having been so money-driven over the past decade, that now some artists are feeling a responsibility to respond to the culture in more generous ways."

It was unusual, he said, for a "big band that is breaking through" to step out of the mould of touring to huge venues. The xx shows, he said, would be moulded by "a very smart creative team" that would work with the band to create a theatrical, strongly visual element to the concerts.

The Manchester international festival was founded in 2007; at its heart is the notion of presenting new work in all genres and, according to Poots, giving artists the opportunity "to realise their great unrealised projects".

Manchester International Festival in the money as £2m pours in
November 16, 2012

The fourth Manchester International Festival is on course to attract more private sponsorship than any other festival in the country.

Fundraising from commercial and individual sponsors for next year’s cultural extravaganza has already passed the £2m mark – 75 per cent of the target.

Top-tier sponsors signed up so far include property giant Bruntwood, the Co-operative Group, Manchester Airports Group, NCP and PZ Cussons.

All the companies are returning sponsors, with many having supported MIF since it was first held in 2007. The M.E.N – which will again be a media partner of the festival – revealed yesterday that one of the headline acts for next July’s event will be Sir Kenneth Branagh. The actor-director will play Macbeth in a deconsecrated church in central Manchester.

Philip Spedding, director of Art & Business, a charitable organisation set up to help arts and business work together for mutual benefit, said: "MIF is a remarkable success story.

"We believe it is now on course to become the biggest UK festival in terms of private-sector support."

Festival director Alex Poots said: "Manchester’s business community is again putting its weight behind the festival, matching the excellent example set by our public funders - Manchester City Council, Salford City Council and Arts Council England.

"We are grateful to all our sponsors and funders for their commitment in what continues to be a very testing time for business, the arts and the public sector across the country."

Andrew Harrison from Manchester Airport said: "The Manchester International Festival is something different and brings an international focus to our city, drawing additional visitors from around the world and allowing artists of great stature to perform."

MIF receives 40 per cent of its funding from the public sector – including £2m from Manchester council – with the remaining 60 per cent coming from sponsors, co-commisioning, ticket sales and donations.

Manchester council leader Sir Richard Leese said: "We’re really proud to support Manchester International Festival and it is great to see that some of the biggest names in in the private sector also recognise MIF’s real value."

An independent study into the last festival held in 2011 found that it boosted the city’s economy by £37.6m.

Curtis featured in the 2009 festival with his widely-acclaimed immersive theatre production It Felt Like A Kiss.

Massive Attack v Adam Curtis will be staged in Manchester city centre from Thursday 4th July to Saturday 7th July.

Tickets go on sale on 31 January to MIF members and then on Friday 1st February to the public

Theatre to take centre-stage as line-up for Manchester International Festival is revealed

28 Feb 2013 13:00
Kenneth Branagh, Neneh Cherry, Maxine Peake, Sir John Tavener, Massive Attack and The xx are among the star names at this year's festival




Kenneth Branagh, Neneh Cherry, Maxine Peake, Sir John Tavener, Massive Attack, Goldfrapp, The xx, world-renowned pianist Martha Argerich and Manchester band Delphic have been revealed as the star names at this year's Manchester International Festival.

Branagh and Peake were joined by the festival's chief executive Alex Poots in the city today to announce the full programme for the biennial event, which takes place right across Manchester from July 4 to July 24.

In its fourth year, the festival maintains a diverse mix of music, arts, theatre and chat, but in 2013 theatre takes centre stage. And MIF will also bring some long-forgotten spaces back into use, including the former Methodist-owned Albert Hall and the disused railway station and storage facility Mayfield Depot.

Hollywood actor Willem Dafoe returns for a second time to co-star in a production of The Old Woman with dancer and actor Mikhail Baryshnikov, directed by Robert Wilson - who worked on The Life and Death of Marina Abramovic in 2011's festival.

Branagh's appearance in Macbeth was revealed last month and tickets for the intimate shows at a still-secret deconsecrated Manchester church sold out in minutes. In response, the festival will now broadcast a live production onto a big screen at the Bridgewater Hall car park on July 20 for an audience of around 5,000.

Peake will star in a one-woman adaptation of Percy Bysshe Shelley's The Masque of Anarchy, a political poem about the Peterloo Massacre in which 15 Mancunians perished and hundreds were injured as they campaigned for parliamentary reform, staged in the Albert Hall just metres away from the original massacre.

And casting continues for The Machine, the story of chess player Garry Kasparov which is being directed by Salford-born director Josie Rourke and performed at Campfield Market Hall - home to Bjork's Biophilia in 2011.

In music, the Festival Pavilion in Albert Square will host residencies from Delphic, who will rework their new album Collections with a host of international musicians for three nights; Swedish musician Neneh Cherry, who showcases her new album RoketNumberNine in the opening weekend; and young music pioneer and grime music enthusiast Jamal Edwards.

LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy unites with Too Many DJs (aka Soulwax) to play four vinyl-only club nights on a custom built sound system at the Co-operative Ballroom in New Century Hall, The xx play several nights at a secret venue throughout the festival, spiritual singer Abida Parveen makes a one-off rare appearance at the Bridgewater, and Goldfrapp unite with the RNCM string orchestra for two nights at the Albert Hall.

John Tavener will be joined by the BBC Philharmonic and the MIF Sacred Sounds Women's Choir to premiere three new pieces of music, Scottish band Mogwai will soundtrack a film about legendary footballer Zinedine Zidane, and Bestival organiser Rob da Bank teams up with Manchester photographer Kevin Cummins for a audio-visual exploration of Manchester music through the decades and the alphabet.

In art, duo Massive Attack join It Felt Like A Kiss and The Crash Of The Elysium director Felix Barrett and filmmaker Adam Curtis, group show do it 20 13 takes over Manchester Art Gallery with interactive performance pieces, and at Mayfield Depot a collaboration of artists stage free exhibitions during the day and Stavinsky's The Rite of Spring soundtracks a dancing cloud of bone china dust by night.

Innis Goris brings Once Upon A Time to Manchester Town Hall, a mixed media performance based on children's stories for families, and Indian artist Nikhil Chopra responds to Manchester's textile industry with Coal on Cotton, exploring how these commodities maintain modern day slavery.

DJ and author Dave Haslam also returns with a series of In Conversation events, this time with Neneh Cherry and Jamal Edwards, and as one of the stellar Manchester DJs lined up to play for free at the Pavilion throughout the festival alongside Will Tramp, Drunk at Vogue and Disco Mums.

Tickets and a full programme can be found online at www.mif.co.uk.

The Rite of Spring: Manchester International Festival calls it quits

Kate Feld

Manchester International Festival’s Stravinsky performance was daring and ambitious – and stymied by logistics.

It was the kind of thing you heard about at the festival launch and thought: how the blazes are they going to do that? It now turns out that they weren’t quite sure themselves. Manchester International Festival has called off this summer’s performance of The Rite of Spring, which was to be accompanied by whirling bone dust, its movements choreographed to Stravinsky’s music within a purpose-built clear cube at Mayfield Depot. The reason given was that “it is not yet possible in the format that the artist envisioned.”

“We’re going to have to park it until the next festival,” Alex Poots said yesterday. When conductor Teodor Currentzis approached Alex Poots with the project a year ago, MIF’s artistic director says he found the concept “very alluring.” Not only for the symbolism inherent in a centenary performance of the Rite by commissioner Diaghilev’s hometown orchestra, but also because director Romeo Castellucci’s vision for the performance – not dancers, but bone dust – had the potential to be nearly as radical as the polarising music and Nijinsky’s audacious choreography at the Rite’s 1913 premiere. Instead of ballet, we’d watch “the endless dance of the universe”.

“The vision is so incredible,” Poots said. But he admitted that realising that vision had been more difficult than anticipated. “It’s been a really tough journey.” His brief summary of where they’ve been with this project brings home the scale of what MIF does every two years. First there was the red tape. “Quite understandably – we’re not complaining – DEFRA doesn’t want 30 tonnes of animal bone dust coming in from China.” Then it transpired that the structure needed to manipulate the dust would have to be much bigger than expected, tripling the cost. A search for other, equally engaging ways to stage the performance proved fruitless. Reluctantly, Poots said, “we realised we needed more time.”

“I was really distraught,” he recalled. “We spent a year on this; we had musicians coming from Perm next week… but we’ve had more than 80 commissions. This is the first one that’s going to have to be postponed.” It’s unfortunate, but the cancellation affirms MIF’s place right out on the artistic cutting edge. In a safer programme, everything would probably come off without a hitch. But do we really want a safer programme? Yes, it’s the festival’s job to ensure what is do-able within its timescale before selling tickets (and I’m a disappointed Rite ticketholder myself). But I like the fact that what MIF does is let the artists dream their dreams and work right up to the last minute to make them happen. If some of those visions are too far-out, it proves the festival is really stretching the limits of what is possible. And over the last seven years, Manchester – and the world – has come to expect nothing less.

MIF Cancel Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring

The ballet would not be "compromised"

Written by David Blake.

MANCHESTER International Festival's production of Stravinsky's century-old ballet, The Rite of Spring, due to be performed over six shows between 14 July - 19 July has been cancelled.

Below is the official MIF press release:

After careful consideration we have reluctantly concluded that the new staging of The Rite of Spring - directed by Romeo Castellucci and conducted by Teodor Currentzis - is not yet possible in the format that the artist has envisioned and we must cancel this summer’s run in Manchester.

We are a Festival of world premieres and one-off events and the work – by its very nature – involves risk. The Festival, the director and creative team are disappointed but all are clear that it would be unacceptable to present a compromised version of this ambitious show to our audiences.

We are working with our partners, the Ruhrtriennale 2012 - 2014 in Germany and Perm State Opera and Ballet Theatre in Russia, to continue to realise this radical new production; more details will be available in due course.

All audience members for The Rite of Spring can transfer their tickets to another Festival event (subject to availability), or can request a full refund via Quay Tickets on 0161 876 2406 or info@quaytickets.com

This sounds interesting, bought to us by Bruntwood one of the festivals sponsors.

New Work All Play

Work to play

They say all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy...


Well, we think you need both in equal measure. That's why Bruntwood invest in creativity to make new and distinctive things happen in our cities.

Our sponsorship of Manchester International Festival does just that, bringing world premières and original new work across performing arts, music, visual arts and popular culture to Manchester.

This year we're celebrating our continued support as a key sponsor by creating an exciting digital experience.

New Work All Play will be a live, light projected installation hidden in the heart of Manchester which you can discover and interact with online.

It will be at once a collective experience, a tapestry of memories, and a space to share. A live entity responding to the rhythm of the Festival, onto which you will be able to leave your own mark.

We want you to get involved.

This is really good, shame it has not been that well known for the festival really, it is very interesting and rather well hidden which is a shame. But if you can get to New York Street and the empty unit next to Giovanni's Deli is hosting the New Work All Play event, all you do is look through the viewing holes from the shop window and you watch what happens, very well done I must say too.

Just home from the Massive Attack - Adam Curtis Mayfield show, so pleased I went. Very expensive way to see the station (there are free events later) but it was phenomenal with the crowds, the sound and vision and the sense of occasion.

A lot of people were saying what an amazing space it is and how it should be used for concerts all the time.

The show was better than I expected, lots to think about, and walking out afterwards through another equally large space with flood lights playing around in the dark... :)

I'm off to the same thing on Sunday, really excited. But, only out of curiosity and without wanting to sound like a nay-sayer, I'd really like to know how much it cost to make Mayfield safe and accessible for these shows, and if the cost has been justified by the expectation of any further use, or if that's it.
Hope you enjoy it, I've read a couple of reviews, Guardian didn't get it (readers replies to the review were spot on) and ManCon thought it was a bit gloomy (?). Not a gig, a "thing" I got really caught up in the amazing connections in the parallel stories but I had to listen to everything and read every piece of text from the start.

Given how many people are happy to watch gloomy subtitled Scandinavian etc crime thrillers, it should be popular. Not as hard to follow as Borgen!

Went to the Nikhil Chopra event today and got to say it was very well done, it is also great to be able to see the new extension for the Whitworth. It gives a sense of what to expect next year once all complete. If it was raining I am not sure how successful this event could have been though, they got very lucky with the weather indeed. If you want to go to it, get there quick as it ends tomorrow at sunset. Also the summer season of exhibitions is well worth a visit before is closes for the complete redevelopment in September.

I also went to the Do It 2013 show at Manchester Art Gallery and once again the Art Gallery have got another MIF highlight I think, very interactive and immersive, with when I was visiting even the artist moving one of their exhibits to another area of the space.

There certainly is a great buzz around the city centre right now with MIF on and the Festival Square was heaving this afternoon.

^^ Indeed it is true.

All hail Macbeth as Kenneth Branagh is the voice of the tram!

6 Jul 2013

The A-list actor has recorded a message for tram passengers heading to the St Peter’s Square stop, the nearest to the festival’s base in Albert Square.

Visitors heading to Manchester International Festival will face no toil and trouble today – with Macbeth star Sir Kenneth Branagh making the Metrolink stop announcements.

The A-list actor has recorded a message for tram passengers heading to the St Peter’s Square stop, the nearest to the festival’s base in Albert Square.

When the tram stops at Piccadilly Gardens or Deansgate on its way to St Peter’s Square, Sir Kenneth’s dulcet tones announce the festival, in which he stars as Macbeth.

As the doors close, he is heard to say: “Please alight at St Peter’s Square for Festival Square, the heart of Manchester International Festival.”

The messages are also being broadcast to passengers on platforms across the network for the duration of the 18-day festival.

Peter Cushing, TfGM’s Metrolink director, said: “We’re very grateful to Sir Kenneth Branagh for recording this special message and we hope it becomes a highlight of passengers’ journeys during the festival.”

Although Sir Kenneth’s skills as a writer, director and actor have garnered international acclaim, some commuters still failed to detect his inimitable boom.

Mark Priest, travelling from MediaCity after a conference, said: “I did hear the announcement but I have to say I didn’t know it was Kenneth Branagh. I think it’s a really interesting idea but perhaps they need to do something more distinctive so people recognise it’s him.”

Linsey Brown was visiting Manchester Science Museum. She said: “I know who he is but I had no idea his voice was on the tram. It’s interesting but perhaps it should stand out a bit more and be used a bit better.”

However, some travellers recognised and enjoyed the unexpected voice-over.

Eamonn McGovern, 60, an artist at MediaCity, said: “I definitely noticed the announcement, it was very theatrical and sounded like a trained actor’s voice. Now you say it was him it all makes sense.

“I think it’s a good idea, it makes you think more about what was said whereas a regular voice is not as significant really.”

Sir Kenneth is performing in a much-anticipated production of the Shakespeare play, which sold out minutes after tickets went on sale.

But the actor isn’t the first celebrity to have his tones broadcast on the Metrolink network.

Bosses used the voices of City players to promote their new stop at the Etihad stadium. Players Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany and James Milner, and then manager Roberto Mancini, all made announcements on the East Manchester Line.

But * Mancini was removed following his sacking from the club at the end of last season.

Sir Kenneth is performing in sold-out productions of Macbeth until July 20.
