Blintzes and blitzes

Blimey! I can't quite believe it's been almost four months since we last updated the blog. It won't happen again, I can promise that. Because right now we're 'all stations go'. Unfortunately we have been forced to postpone 'Beowulf' to another year, but we're not letting that stop us. Instead, we have two projects planned for the remainder of 2008:

The first is our ongoing 'Invisibilitie' work, which has evolved from our 'Everyday Fairytales' performances. A series of 'invisible theatre' events across Cambridge City Centre designed to make people smile as they go about their business. The first of these is THE GREAT BIG RED PICNIC on Sunday 25th May at midday. We're hoping it will be the biggest picnic Cambridge has ever seen, so we're going to need hundreds of people to attend. So if you fancy taking your lunch in the (hopefully) glorious sunshine, eating good food and meeting new people do come along. All you need is to bring some food to share and wear an item of red clothing. It should be great fun and we hope to see you there!

The second is our promenade production of ROMEO AND JULIET set in 1940s London during the Blitz. With some of the beautiful, melancholy music of that period combined with an energetic ensemble of 8 performing all the roles, it should be a really original production of the play. We're going to be casting in a few weeks' time so sign up to the mailing list or keep checking the website if you'd lie to be kept updated about auditions.

More soon, and hope to see you at the picnic!
