This is my first comment on this page, in fact on any page . . . so hello everyone!

 

Firstly, I'd like to say how much I can't wait to see Shock n Awe and Fragments of Ash in Edinburgh they both look really interesting!

 

I am, also, taking a show to Edinburgh called Tim and Light which is by the children's theatre company I work for as Assistant Producer called Tucked In.

 

The show is a new story written by the Artistic Director, Hal Chambers, and devised by the company. It is a beautiful new fairy tale told through playful physical theatre and intricate puppetry!

 

Tucked In burst onto the scene with Jackajack, which toured the UK between 2007-09 and gained them sell-out audiences and 5 star reviews along the way. They return with a new magical adventure suitable for the whole family. Combining an original ambient soundtrack and memorable puppets, Tim and Light is a story of courage that that will warm the hearts of young and old alike. 

Think Coraline meets Hayao Miyazaki’s gorgeous animated films (Spirited Away) meets the macabre atmosphere of a Tim Burton graveyard!

 

The show is in the middle of its UK tour having toured places such as the Lyric Hammersmith, Exeter Northcott, Glastonbury and Latitude and soon to visit the Lowry, the Tricycle, and many more venues.

 

It would be really great to see some of you there and get some feedback about the show!

 

Its on at the Pleasance Courtyard, Above from the 5th to the 29th of August at 12.30pm (except Tuesday 16 and 23) and you can book at: http://www.pleasance.co.uk/edinburgh/events/tim-and-light--2

 

Hope to see you there!

Congratulations to Shock n Awe.  I’m looking forward to seeing the compressed Muscle being flexed in Edinburgh.

Now, to ramp up the excitement, let me tell you where Notional Theatre is at.

I’ve just got in from rehearsals for Fragments of Ash which is on at the Bute Theatre next Tuesday and Wednesday (26^th & 27^th) at 9pm as part of the Cardiff Festival Fringe. Those two performances are sneak-previews for a 3 week run on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe: August 5^th to 27^th at Venue 13.

Fragments of Ash has evolved from the work-in-progress performance in Monmouth earlier this year: ‘...the excellence and the beauty of the piece is very strong.’ (Michael Kelligan, Theatre Wales). ‘...an absolutely brilliant new play’ (Chris Ryde, Savoy Theatre). Now the play is revealing itself in surprising detail.

If you are off to Edinburgh this year we hope to see you up there. If not we’d be proud to have you in the audience next week.

Fragments of Ash work was developed with a small project grant from the ACW. For Edinburgh, Notional Theatre has a co-production partnership with Murder on the Menu. And now, with guidance from Nick Davies, the ACW have awarded us £28,000, one of the biggest grants of the past few years. We are planning two tours – Autumn 2011 and Spring 2012 - in association with Hijinx Theatre.  

For the creative team, writer/director (me), composer/musical director Gareth Wyn Griffiths and choreographer Kylie Ann Smith, the funding is a huge vote of confidence. Our cast is truly remarkable: Jordan Bernarde, Clêr Stephens, Robert Harper, Lisa Zahra, Janine Cooper-Marshall and the voice over of BBC Wales’ Jamie Owen.

To get to this point many many people have held our hands in ways practical, financial and emotional: they are all named in the show’s (free) programme.

 Fragments of Ash is a political drama about mothers and war that blends physical and narrative theatre to a stunning original score. Do come and see it if you possibly can.

Hello,

I am looking for a Production Manager to work with me on a piece of theatre being performed in February.
The production is called 'Dance Beast, Voice Monster - Mooing from the Soul' and is a solo show using physical theatre, song, dance big hats and monsters.

http://actsofbeauty.co.uk/wordpress/dance-beast-voice-monster-mooin...

This is a voluntary position, so ideal either for someone who wants experience, or for someone who has experience but wants to get involved anyway!

I am also looking for crafters and costume makers who would like to create some monsters with me - please do get in touch!

If you are interested, please contact me on 07977245055 or info@teifiemerald.net - you're welcome to call just to find out more if you like.

Best wishes
Teifi Emerald
