The Midland Group was an arts organisation based in Nottingham in the 1980's, which had a profound effect on the development of Performance art and Live Art.

Events included the 'Performance Platform' organised by Steve Rogers^[1], which was the starting point for National Review of Live Art, currently held at the Tramway, in Glasgow.

'Saccharin Muscle' was performed by Dogs in Honey^[2] at the Midland Group on the 25th October 1986.
