Join us online at 19.30 \nWatch the Salon on YouTube Support us on Ko-Fi \nNo More Single Story! \nIn this Salon we look at the power of story to break the dignity of a people\, or repair that broken dignity to paraphrase the fabulous Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. We’ll explore how authors from different countries have written about colonisation\, its hold on narratives to control minds – and see what happens when characters escape their confines! And we’ll be exploring stories *about* stories too. \nDid you know? – Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie was obsessed with trying ginger beer as a little girl reading English children’s books?! \nOr that when Carly Simon wrote You’re So Vain not one but at least three of her famous ex boyfriends tried to claim the song was about them! \nSawing a woman in half has been a popular magic trick since the 1920’s\, but it was magician Dorothy Dietrich\, who established herself as a leading magician as a teenager in the 1980’s. She has been called the “First woman to saw a man in half.” \nWatch the Salon \n  \nAbout Salon de la Vie \nHosted by Scary Little Girls’ Rebecca Mordan\, Salon de la Vie is a series of fortnightly 15 – 20 minute extravaganzas of songs\, storytelling\, merriment and conversation\, focusing each time on an awe-inspiring\, remarkable and brave human from the world of film\, music\, literature and history\, drawing parallels with the achievements of activists today\, to celebrate how people positively embody the change they want to see in the world\, for themselves and for others.

Over dinner at a table at the Criterion Restaurant in London\, two actresses hatch a plan…  \nNo longer content with ‘adding to the gaiety of the nation while suffering from great wrongs arising out of sex disability’\, the time had come for change… The Actresses Franchise League was born and soon boasted such names as Ellen Terry\, Cicely Hamilton\, Edith Craig\, JM Barrie and George Bernard Shaw amongst its supporters.

SUMMARY:Salon de la Vie - from Freya to Fairy Tale
DESCRIPTION:When did women become so passive in stories?  \nAncient tales and sagas feature active\, dynamic women\, as powerful and creative as the men. More modern tales have relegated women to more passive roles – helpmeets\, companions\, and devices to move the story along. \nIn our Salon on the 20th May\, we’ll be exploring this trend – when and how did it happen? Where did some of our modern characters come from\, and what’s their origin story? Did you know that ‘Anonymous’ was usually a woman’? That Snow White started out as the Nordic Goddess Freya? And have you heard how Cornish fairytale heroine Duffy beat the Devil? \nWe’d love to hear from you in advance – what’s your favourite feminist fairy (or other? ) tale? Message us! \nJoin us on Facebook Live from 7.30 on the 20th May for 20 minutes of fabulous feminist fun – mix up an Apple Martini in advance to get in the mood! \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nSalon de la Vie is Scary Little Girls’ contribution to fun and feminism in a time of COVID-19! \nOur fortnightly 15 -20 minute extravaganzas of songs\, storytelling\, merriment and conversation\, focus each time on an awe-inspiring\, remarkable and brave woman from the world of film\, music\, literature and history\, drawing parallels with the achievements of activists today\, to celebrate how people positively embody the change they want to see in the world\, for themselves and for others.

SUMMARY:Greenham Exhibition & Events (St Agnes)
DESCRIPTION:We’re delighted to take the Greenham Women Everywhere touring pop-up exhibition to St Agnes Library for a special week of events including a screening of new animations by students at Falmouth Film School (Friday 21 February) and a sing-a-long night with Claire Inglehart (Saturday 22 February).  Tickets for these events are available directly from the library. \nThe exhibition itself is free of charge and showcases some original photographs created by our team\, and also archival material\, both visual and written\, which we have collated during the project. We’ll be playing you soundscapes created by artists we have worked with which give a cross-section of the oral testimonies we have taken\, as well as using some of the wonderful Greenham music. \nAll set in a Greenham-inspired tent\, this exhibition really allows you to get an intimate look at the sights and sounds of the camp\, gives voice to these radical women and asks you what change you want to see in the world. \nOur team has been led in the exhibition design by Rachael Miles\, an artist and Senior Lecturer at The University of The West of England. \n \nWe need your support: visit our Greenham GoFundMe!

SUMMARY:Greenham Exhibition (Cambridge)
DESCRIPTION:Between August and December 2019\, Greenham Women Everywhere will be taking a pop-up exhibition on tour around the UK. \nThe exhibition will showcase some original photographs created by our team\, and also archival material\, both visual and written\, which we have collated during the project. We’ll be playing you soundscapes created by artists we have worked with which give a cross-section of the oral testimonies we have taken\, as well as using some of the wonderful Greenham music. \nThere will be a video installation which explores what political concerns and campaigns the Greenham Women are taking on today\, and there will even be a chance to meet some of the Greenham Women themselves – many will be hosting the exhibitions with us. \nAll set in a Greenham-inspired tent\, this exhibition really allows you to get an intimate look at the sights and sounds of the camp\, gives voice to these radical women and asks you what change you want to see in the world. \nDo keep an eye on the exhibition schedule for our panel talks – we’ll be running several. These are wonderful opportunities to hear from a range of Greenham Women and ask your own questions about life on camp\, as well as talk directly to the project managers about the project itself. \nOur team has been led in the exhibition design by Rachael Miles\, an artist and Senior Lecturer at The University of The West of England. \n \nWe need your support: visit our Greenham GoFundMe!
