VISUAL ART Bedwyr Williams: Echt

COMEDY Bridget Christie

The Welsh artist injects a dash of dark humour into the Glasgow International 2014 programme with his large-scale Tramway installation. Set in a dark forest clearing, Echt situates Williams’ typically ordinary characters within extraordinary settings, including a dystopian future where your social standing is closely tied to how much you consume. Find out more in our interview with Williams, page 12, as part of our larger Glasgow International feature. Tramway, Glasgow, Fri 4 Apr–Sun 25 May. Feminist funnywoman Christie brings her award- winning show, A Bic for Her, to the Glasgow International Comedy Festival. See interview on list. co.uk, plus more GICF coverage from page 52.
