…the first event I have ever produced. Following on from the incredible success of the TolpuddleKX festival earlier this year I thought I'd have a go singlehandedly! I'm attempting to bring fringe theatre onto our very doorsteps… and not any old fringe either. This is a chance to see brand new short plays written by some of the UK's best new writers: the Lucky Dogs Collective. The Dogs were formed via the Royal Court's Young Writers' Programme and support each other to further develop their writerly talents.
I will be on stage in the first short play and will be needing the support of as many friends and neighbours as can make it. It is nerve wracking to be producing and performing on my own doorstep!
The on-the-door ticket price of £7 covers three performances, a feast of either carnivorous speciality or vegan delight and a pint of guesting real ale. The second short play is presented by Sally Beaumont, up and coming coordinator of the Lucky Dogs. The evening will be rounded off by a fantastic rootsy folk set from local band the Northern Celts who you may remember had us all dancing at TolpuddleKX.
I have been working with the Central Station bar, together we hope to make this a monthly event further widening the customer base at this increasingly community focussed venue. The recent refurbishment there with a brand new restaurant, roof terrace and comfy bed & breakfast accommodation are just the start for Martin, Duncan and the staff there.
