Details

Jeff Noon - the Manchester cult novelist. A mind that takes the day-to-day landscapes of Whalley Range, Hulme, Rusholme, and transport them into a beyond-fantasy world. In Noon-land our minds fly on illegal feathers and a trip to the local Spar can slip into a pink porn fantasy or a black-death challenge. Longtime focus of a worldwide cult following, Noon is now being recognised as one of the key novelists of the last ten years. In Contact's Vurt, Noon flies off the page. But this ain't no ordinary adaptation. Expect a unique theatre remix of Vurt, mingling and reinventing the elements of the book to provide a surprise joy-ride for newcomers and experienced travellers alike.
