Friday 28/03/2014 Exhibition continues, then from 7pm Magpie Cinema
present High on Hope, a film about the Blackburn rave scene with
Q&A from director Piers Sanderson plus music from DJs Russ and Waka,
plus home cooked food from Mr Foulgers kitchen.
Commemorating
the 20th anniversary of acid house this documentary feature film tells
the story of the infamous 'Hardcore Uproar’ warehouse parties in
Blackburn 1989-91.
From just 50 friends in a backstreet
workshop these parties grew to over 10,000 people dancing in cavernous
warehouses across the north west every week.
Their trajectory
mirrored what was happening nationally as acid house went from an
underground scene to The mass youth cult of the end of the 20th century.
With q&a after the film with director Piers Sanderson.
