Live Score

Oliver Haddo, a charlatan magician/alchemist, seeking to create life, finds that he needs the “blood of a virgin” to continue his experiments. He sets his sights on Margaret Dauncey, who is caught between the forces of Haddo, whom she is unable to resist, and the love of a surgeon, Arthur Burdon.

AUTOHAUs are an instrumental four piece band based in Margate on the Kent coast

“AUTOHAUs make fractal music; layering fuzzed-out noise and electronic drones, motorik percussion and hypnotic bass lines… a must for fans of Spacemen3, The Cosmic Dead, Ash Ra Tempel and Neu!”

Melinda Bronstien is an inter-disciplinary artists exploring magic in the mundane. Constructing beautifully wonky atmospheres through improvised vocal drone loops, casiotone, noises and toyses, and found objects.

“This was a perfect pairing of visuals and audio. Highly recommended.” audience attendee for last year’s performance of ‘haxan’
