Hi. I'm Linda Brogan. I'm a playwright.
1976 to 1981 I used to go to the Reno a legendary cellar club in Moss Side Manchester. Its legendary DJ was Persian in my book. Disputed. Some preferred Coolie. Depends what era you went. We shared a latter day DJ with the Hacienda, Hewan Clarke.
Funded by the Art's Council:
2016 I collected Reno memoirs.
2017 I actually excavated the Reno with 300 Reno regulars, Salford Uni Applied Archaeology, and amateur enthusiasts.
2019/2020 we exhibited everything in our residency in the Whitworth Art Gallery.
Memoirs, excavation and residency footage are coming below. Like an idiot I didn't link my Google account and lost the lot. It's gonna be a ball-ache but bear with me they will be back in place soon.
