FREE creative workshop after the show (optional)

Do you want to be part of creating a short illustrated film?

Stick around after the show for a free and informal  creative writing workshop  based around the themes of the play, we'll also be joined by a  community energy representative to hear a little bit about what they do. Whatever you create, whether that's a poem, prose, haiku or a short story (anything at all!), it could form part of a short illustrated film later in the year that will be screened at other rural venues...

So, grab a drink and some nibbles, and come and have a scribble for an hour!
