Lets burn some toast!

Went to see Cori engaged in a delightful bit of puppetry in Mayfest. She's been working for some time with Tomasin Cuthbert's company Soap Soup and they've been developing a piece called Sir Gregory's Hutch for over a year. I had seen three slices of what seemed quite disconnected so was deeply pleased to see how they had worked it into a satisfying theatrical mouthful. Mmmm.

Jonny and I have been dolly waggling for the Welsh National Opera in their production of Tchaikovsky's Queen of Spades. 2 more to go!

Cori and I have been workshopping together; a month ago on a puppet project with (very) young mums in Bristol and this weekend we're off to Farnham to deliver a Youth Theatre School taster session.

I just left the workshop where Max has been beavering away on some back-pack fly wings for Pickled Image's new street show. they rock! I'll get him to post some photos or a video...
