I am very happy that my audio play Homer’s Lane, inspired by the life and work of Joe the Quilter, is finally coming very close to its original setting.
After a wonderful reception at the UK International Audio Drama Festival, the play will be presented at the Old Gaol Museum in Hexham, just around the corner from Homer’s Lane, a little country road near Warden.
On Friday the 15th of September Homer’s Lane will be played three times (2pm, 3pm, 5pm) as a special broadcast in the upstairs room of the museum.
The last performance will be combined with a live concert by the amazing musicians John Pope and John Garner, who also made the soundtrack for the audio play. They will be presenting their wonderful Water Music Album, paying tribute to mid-to-late-twentieth century artists who shook the world to its core, driving political and social change in their wake, including Jeanne Lee, Alice Coltrane, Ornette Coleman and Don Cherry.
There are only limited places for each event, so please secure your tickets early.

DIE GETRÄUMTE STADT audio collage
For all German speakers there is still time to listen to my audio collage Die geträumte Stadt/ the City, which was inspired by a 5-month artist residency in the City of Basel, Switzerland in 2022.
The audio play is presented online as a Sonic Summer Special by the Citizen Büro of the City of Basel.

THE GREAT NORTHERN DIVER audio play by Jim Lloyd
For all Bird lovers and Poetry fans I invite you to the MA exhibition at Newcastle University which will open this Friday, 18th of August and will be running for two weeks.
I was collaborating with artist and poet Jim Lloyd, directing and producing his audio play The Great Northern Diver, which tells the story of one man's attempt to capture bird calls as he searches to understand what it might be like to be a bird.

I am very delighted that my first audio play Solitude will be travelling to the wonderful Church of St John, a Grade II listed Building in Healey Northumberland in October.

A big thank you to all my collaborators and friends for their ongoing support.
Hope to see some of you at one of the events. Gabriele Heller
