A life Changing Experience

Where to begin but the start I suppose. Sept 21st 2017, I arrive at the Wallich HQ on the aptly named Cathedral Road. I entered, but to my surprise, it was very modern inside, but there was still evidence of it's true self in places. I arrived early and found myself killing two hours before the workshop was due to start. That wasn't a good start and what came next didn't help matters.

I get a phone call, stood early in a former…

Life in a Small-Scale Theatre - A Plea for Space.

Hi All,

Compliments of the season to you.

We were wondering if anyone out there might know of a storage space going for flats etc. We have the Shirley Valentine and Aberystwyth Mon Amour set looking for storage space and we were hoping we could find a convenient home for it.

If anyone's got any idea, could you let us know here or at lighthousetheatreltd@gmail.com?

Many thanks..and a merry Christmas!

Ade and Son xxx…

Hi, welcome back to the final part of my blog series on increasing diversity in youth arts to ensure engagement of young people and their families.
