As day turns to night, immerse yourself in a captivating sound world and ever changing outdoor live performance. Using an ensemble of visually striking mechanical ‘instruments’ – gongs, bells, whistles and explosive events – Warning Notes creates a rich and powerful soundscape that gives voice to the current social and ecological alarm that ripples across our world.

A new show by international artist Mark Anderson that is improvised and responsive to audience and environment, Warning Notes is playful and hypnotic, inviting us to listen to the present and contemplate both personal and global stories – and our future together.

“A pulsing, gorgeous and threatening world woven out of sound sculptures and beautiful, rhythmic notes” – Audience

Touch Tour: A touch tour is available for those who are partially or fully Blind or D/deaf. Tours must be booked in advance and will take place during the hour of daylight 45 minutes before the show starts on the Saturday. One of the Artists will greet you at the show entrance. They would then take you on a short tour of Warning Notes – it’s sensory experiences and stories. You can also touch and stand closer to some of the show’s ‘instruments’, with some rope barriers removed to enable this.

Limited Spaces. Booking required please contact us on 01824 704774 or email ruthincraftcentre@denbighshireleisure.co.uk

Relaxed Performance: A relaxed performance is available to those who wish to experience the show in daylight, in a quieter, less busy way, and at your own pace. The relaxed performance must be booked in advance and will take place during the first half an hour of the show on both days. A person can be available at the show entrance to greet you, listen and take note of what you need, and guide you around the show space if required.
