What's happened/happening in January?

Work continues on researching and writing the new scripts for the Forgotten Sporting Heroes of Gloucestershire project. Publicity is no out there and we are starting to get bookings from schools, venues and other places. This in addition to the already arranged libraries and museums performances.

On top of that we have been involved with a Turn Back Stroud Time project working with Stroudwater Textile Trust, Museum in the Park and funded and supported by the BBC, Stroud Town Council and Stroud FM. On Friday 28th and Saturday 29th there will be a number of costumed characters in Stroud High Street as part of a special guided walk where "History Comes Alive"! 10.15 a.m. on Friday and 2.00 p.m. on Saturday.

On top of that on Saturday 29th we are performing short bits of our more usual Victorian characters in the Sub Rooms Cafe under the title "Bite Size At The Subs" from 12-2. This is a kind of test for a soup/supper theatre idea which the Sub Rooms are keen for us to try later in the year.
