Event cancellation notice

We are sorry to advise that all the #LIF2021 The Mersey Mash events have had to be postponed until 2022. This means the community conversations, and recording sessions, can no longer run as part of this year’s Festival.

We remain committed to collecting these stories, and creating the film, but life-circumstances for the project’s owners means we are not able to run the events in October as originally planned. Please stay tuned for further sessions, most likely to be scheduled for 2022’s Festival.

Original listing

As close to the Festival as we can possible make it, Doug will present The Mersey Mash, a magazine-show film that collects and tells the stories you told during #LIF2021, particularly those gathered at Mixers 1-5.

This is an evening to see yourself onscreen and to witness stories from the community you live in. Fresh from the Festival, this is a chance to revel and reflect, chat and critique; in the homely surrounds of the Centre, alongside the people who make it great. This is an exchange between audiences and documentarists; people and places. After this screening, the film will be re-tweaked before its online release, so this is a behind the scenes of the process of filmmaking.
