We’ve now had confirmation that our venue for Artsfest 2010 will be the Back-to-backs off Hurst Street (See the National Trust site page for location details). We’ll be on at 1pm on Saturday 11th, and the individual short works aim to capture what living in a back-to-back might be like. Like our previous events, these are script-in-hand readings.

The pieces are:

    Bouncing Off the Bricks by Robert Warrington
    Grandma Gibbins by Nigel Pocknell
    A Back to Back Tale by Nigel Pocknell
    No More Saturday Nights by Liz John
    The Sack ‘Em Up Men by Catherine Roth
    Whose Turn by Nigel Pocknell
    Blackout by Gerald Kells

Please come along – admission to the site is free for the Artsfest weekend.

Also, if you can’t manage it on the Saturday, there will be a repeat in the Library Theatre on Sunday at 3.30pm.

This is one of the pieces from our show “On The Rocks” at the mac; it was a series of 13 short plays across two nights directed and performed professionally (they are usually script-in-hand). It’s in two parts because of the YouTube 10 minute limit.

I hope to have some more excerpts from the show up in the near future.

Part 2:

… is the title for our two nights of rehearsed readings this summer at the Custard Factory, on the 9th and 10th July. Different works will be read on the two nights and we may (if time permits) have some feedback/discussion sessions on the work. Tickets are £6 for each evening, or £10 for both. Enquiries to tickets@bigscript.co.uk.

We hope to have some of the promotional material for the evenings up here within the next few days.
