Pushing forward

I didn't get lost in the midst of these cold weeks, but still working hard to make this  project happen!  I've had many offers of help and bless them all, including people who want to help without asking anything in return - and our Graphic Designer is one of them!

One more addition to the Production Team sees Miss Victoria Harvey the newly appointed Visual/Light/Sound Technician so... that's sorted too! :)

A bit about her:


Victoria has been a freelance lighting technician/ designer in theatre, conference and music shows since 1991.  She worked on the lighting and technical aspects of many shows at the Lyric Theatre Hammersmith, London, and the English National Opera, London, and many other companies such as Essential Lighting, Fisher Lighting, and Spot Co.  She managed the lighting for the Lee Evans tour ”Same world, Different Planet” and  designed and toured the marriage of Figaro for Pimlico Opera.  She also did the lighting design for many theatre shows mainly in London, such as the Man in the Moon, the Old Red Lion, the Lilian Baylis, the Riverside Studios, as well  as working with Pimlico Opera at Winchester prison.

It is also worth mentioning that, Sally Luff, a member of the Dramaturg's Network has taken an interest on my script and asked me to view it, and that Emma Betts, the Bridge Project Manager of the Royal Opera House, is currently helping with the business plan.

Time is running out and my personal deadline to submit a grant application to fund a tour for the play is almost upon me: keep Your fingers [and toes] crossed, please!  ^_^

Meanwhile, I went to Stantonbury Campus, MK, to see two plays by Cate Hibbert commemorating Holocaust week, based on "I Never Saw Another Butterfly", the poems of the children of Theresienstadt, and on "Man's Search for Meaning" by survivor and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl

Needless to say it was a very inspiring evening, and a great occasion to catch up with some artists I'm quite fond of!
