Artist in Residence Christopher Green invites you to meet the mesmerists from ages past

Copy of ChriswithteaOur Artist in Residence and cabaret-act extraordinaire Christopher Green will be sharing his work-in-progress in a FREE lunchtime event on Wednesday 30 May. Thanks to the Leverhulme Trust, Chris has been investigating his dual interests of stage hypnotism and hypnotherapy in the Library's collections, riffling through our rare books, music and ephemera for inspiration for new material. His show-and-tell is an oportunity to see collection items relating to the mesmerists that have most intrigued him. He will also be singing specially composed songs and revealing a glimpse of a new character. There is more information on our Events page - please email me at [email protected] to reserve a place.
