This month has been a whirlwind of activity. Lots of meetings with exciting opportunities to be had, storytelling workshops in schools to celebrate World Book Day, an Arctic blast to disrupt working patterns, and then a funding rejection. Just when I thought I could banish those winter blues!
Adventure Shack
This project has been developing for the last few years. A flight of fancy adventure using circus and storytelling. A research and development grant back in 2021 led to an exploration of ideas and excitement. However, after much hair pulling and through gritted teeth, we have made the decision to stop trying to follow our dream on this project. Another rejected funding bid is a sign for us to stop pursuing this adventure. But out of it, we have developed a cracking story, so watch out for “The Little Old Lady Who…” perhaps we haven’t thrown the towel in just yet?
The Christmas Toyshop Mystery is On Tour
We are so please to announce that The Christmas Toyshop Mystery is back for Christmas 2023! We are teaming up with The Brewhouse Arts Centre in Burton-upon-Trent to bring families an unforgettable Christmas treat! We are sharing this wonderful festive story from 16-24 December. Tickets will be on sale by the time our next newsletter goes out in April so I will share the link so you can book tickets.
