Forced Entertainment: Indoor Fireworks festival

I’m just back from seeing Instructions for Forgetting, the opening piece of Forced Entertainment‘s two-week Indoor Fireworks festival, which made me realise I should have plugged the festival before now, and I’ve been neglecting the Cultural Calendar section of this site.
As well as six performances of their new work, Bloody Mess, next week — I’m going on Thursday — there are other performances by the company, some of their video work, shows by other performers that they’ve selected for the festival, and on the final day (6 November), talks by academics, the eight-hour durational work Marathon Lexicon, plus a big party to celebrate twenty years since the company was founded.
Further details of Bloody Mess (including trailer) and archive pages. See also Forced Entertainment’s Imaginary Evidence CD-ROM, in the design of which I had a small hand.
