The Driver's Seat

3 Feb-4 Feb 2018

Overview

The Driver’s Seat is a two-day programme of performance, screenings, talks and readings taking inspiration from women writers throughout history, celebrating friendship, collaboration, herstories and defiance. The Driver’s Seat is organised by Cubitt and Glasgow based curators, Panel. Taking place during the centenary year of author Muriel Spark’s birth, the weekend borrows the title of her 1970 novella. Considered to be one of Spark’s most contradictory and stark works, The Driver’s Seat subverts the traditional romantic genre, provoking questions about the nature of female victimisation and empowerment. The full list of participants and event schedule is available on our website.
