where have we been?
Well, maybe you're asking that question, maybe you're not, but suffice it to say that a lot's been going on "behind the scenes".
Last time, we reported on the launch of Mark Cantrell's new book, and it's also now available on Amazon. Which is nice.
calling all Bracknell people
Oh yes... it's almost around the corner, but we need your help again! Remember, remember the 17th of July (Tuesday) when "Live in the Green Room" kicks off. It's aimed at all writers and performers of "the word", be it sung, spoken, shouted, rapped or just read on the page. It's a simple idea - you do your bit, and we all listen appreciatively. After you're done, if you agree, we have a quick round of commentary - constructive criticism of your piece, before we go onto the next thing. If you just want to strut your stuff and be off, then that's OK... no pressure, no pressure...
Oh yes, how you can help...
- Put it in your calendar or bulletin
- Send us a message with your email address so we can send you a PDF flyer to put around the place
- Tell your friends
- Most importantly: turn up. We will live and die by numbers ultimately...
stay in on Wednesday!
well, if you're in the UK and have a telly anyway...
Edmund Davies is playing a lead part in "In Cold Blood" on ITV1 (that's normal ITV to you and me) this coming Wednesday (20th June) at 9pm. Don't be like me and have to go off to a meeting in Bristol so you'll miss the thing!
We at 4Words Media are helping Edmund's new venture "Davies Productions" get underway. Davies Productions will be a new theatre company producing innovative work and allowing all members of the communiy to participate, from curious amateurs to budding professional actors. Their first production, scheduled for early 2008, is "Goth Hamlet" which sounds like great fun!
seeking Ladyfest Reading collaborators
I've just about finished the first flyers which will hopefully be starting to appear around Reading in the coming week and a bit. The delay's been due to our printer breaking down, which happens, unfortunately...
We are looking to put on a Ladyfest in Reading. Ladyfests have been going since 2000 in various parts of the world, and are DIY festivals promoting gender equality in the arts and celebrating female creativity. We have three people involved, five acts who want to play/perform, and we've only just begun!
Send us a message if you'd like to get involved. We're looking at a weekend sometime in the spring of 2008, but hey, it's all up to you!
that's all for now...
