My OperaFebruary OutLoud - At The Langham Hotel, TST
Friday, January 15, 2010 1:17:01 AM
The Fringe Club, after ten years as an extraordinarily generous host to OutLoud, is closing soon for extensive renovations, and won't open again for around six months.
In the meantime, we are looking for alternatives and are delighted to announce that The Langham Hotel, which is just a short walk from the Star Ferry Pier, has offered to host our February event on Wednesday 3rd, from 8-10pm.
(Click on the links in the paragraph above for the hotel's website and a map. Please note that The Langham Hotel is NOT in the big shopping mall! The address is 8 Peking Road, Tsimshatsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Tel: (852) 2375 1133.)
We want to keep the spirit and atmosphere of our regular OutLoud sessions, but we'll also have an opportunity to introduce a new audience to what OutLoud has to offer.
Our event will take place in the Bostonian restaurant in the basement, and a large section will be cleared and set aside for the OutLoud reading - to match fairly closely (but rather more grandly!) the familiar venue of the Fringe.
There will be three readings of about half an hour each, with 15 minute breaks for chat, food and drink. The hotel will provide some small nibbles to start, and there will be reasonably priced food and drink available at a cash bar.
We'll circulate a list of readers nearer the date, and both OutLoud and The Langham will give potential readers for the third section an opportunity to register.
