Rogue Theatre WInter Show in Tehidy Woods

A cold, wild and blustery night made Rogue Theatre's Winter Woods Tehidy Woods show all the more atmospheric with fire dancers, woodland faeries and the sweetheart tree offering a magical night time pre-amble to the main show. The woods hospitable in a primeval way of offering shelter....... In the stately pleasuredome in the woods (a tent decked out with gorgeous tapestry) The King of the Woods tells a labyrinthine adventure of twins caught up a journey fraught with fantastical gods and animalia ..... now a traditional Cornish entertainment for kids and adults......of finery, wonder, glitter, dance and make-believe.....a memorable Christmas Party for the Creative Skills and Cultivator Carn to Cove Feast Cornwall Krowji team ....and a bargain, with hot chocolate thrown in.

New Music Biennale South Bank Centre, London : Intro and Peter Edwards' jazz workshop

@SouthBankCentre @PRSforMusic @BBCRadio 3 Free tickets to a showcase of "a snapshot of what is going on in contemporary music" at the South Bank Centre was too good a offer to miss.

Peter sat at the electronic keyboard with laptop perched on it, a whiteboard to the side and a projection screen over his shoulder. The workshop highlighted a critical proble...
