Sally El Hosaini, Badminton School, Dolly Trolley & Dutty Disco

Sally El-Hosaini is a Welsh-Egyptian BAFTA-nominated film director and screenwriter. Her brilliant 2012 debut ‘My Brother The Devil’ won Best Newcomer at the BFI London Film Festival and played at festivals around the world. Sally’s third feature, ‘Unicorns’, is co-directed with James Krishna Floyd. The Swansea-born filmmaker tells Cinedrome’s Jason Solomons all about it, plus gives her tips for getting into the industry, in this unique on-stage conversation and Filmmaker Q&A.   Badminton School Science Outreach takes a break from their Solar Stage demonstrations to chat to Kidscast. Did you catch them showing how nitrogen can change materials properties, shattering flowers, boiling a kettle at -1960C and even liquifying oxygen? Or delve into the magnetic properties of oxygen before seeing how big a flame you can make with a biscuit? Their shows in Einstein’s Garden demonstrate how vortices form and can be harnessed to make tornadoes of fire, explain how extreme temperatures can leave a magnetic record that allows us to track the motion of tectonic plates, and form clouds in front of your eyes! Find her up and down the aisles or going rusty upturned in a ditch; Dolly Trolley is a Yorkshire-born drag queen based in London who is completely bonkers, utterly delightful and always at 100mph. Since debuting in early 2017, she’s become a household name of the UK drag cabaret scene, known for high energy, dynamic burlesque acts, fierce dance moves, hilarious parodies, rip-roaring hosting and Drag Aerobics. She’s a versatile performer full of surprises, commonly reviewed: “I’m exhausted just from watching.” Dolly is a host and programmer at the Wishbone stage, and here she chats to Olli Dutton, founder of late-night Round The Twist-revellers Dutty Disco.
