I'm wondering if I might get some suggestions on bringing in some high quality or unusual workshop ideas or practitioners to come in and work with us at Mid Powys Youth Theatre. Doesn't need to be for actors, but could be something in Tech/SM or Set Design, Puppetry, Pyro, any unusual disciplines that you may know or have some experience of.
Thanks for any thoughts.

Is anyone able to recommend an experienced (and Wales, or near Wales-based) stage combat tutor to work with teens on duelling/fencing for a stage project? Own transport is essential. Proper, paid work. Please get in touch with any suggestions - message me (Ralph) or email to: mpyt@mail.com   Thanks people.

Only just catching breath after a very, very enjoyable residency in old Rhayader town with John, Gavin, Simon and a posse of new Dutch friends from Peer Group.

Spent one afternoon on a 'diversion' up a hill with with Bud Jones (theatre designer) and Gwynfor (the local hedge-layer). I think we laid about 5 metres of hedge between us although Gwynfor had probably done about 25 on his own before Bud and I arrived to slow his progress. Hugely enjoyable none the less.
