'Over the Hill' in a wardrobe
‘Over the Hill’ in a wardrobe…
A short film by Dave Reading of our performance in the crypt of St Mary in the Castle on Saturday 19th November, as part of the SoCo exhibition ‘Masquerade’.
Devised in haste
Be-set by disaster
Performed in any case
How true. Yet how fabulous!
We have been invited to perform in the café area of St Mary in the Castle in January. Will let you know the date when we confirm.
‘Over the Hill’ has been borrowed from John Martyn who was a resident of Coburg Steps, leading up to the West Hill, Hastings, in the 70s/80s. He wrote this song about the West Hill. Very few people have memories of him beyond the fact that they went drinking with him.
Other people mentioned are all folk who may have trodden the path at some point in the last couple of centuries; Lily Langtry, Grey Owl, Dante Gabriel Rossitti and Lizzie Siddal, Elizabeth Blackwell as well as a nod to Robert Tressell’s workmen.
Devised and performed by:
Will Davis
Judy Dewsbery
Rachel and Ella Lowden
Krysia Mansfield
With help and support from loads of people but especially Dave Reading (adaption of wardrobe), Thierry Alexandre and Barbara Rogers of SmiC.
next 'first Sunday' breakfast: 6th November
2nd October breakfast.
Very relaxed, raised £80, everyone sat in the garden in the glorious sunshine and many went swimming afterwards.
The next event is 6th November and will be the last for this year. December is always so busy but come along on Sunday morning of January1st to start 2012 as we mean to go on.
6th November; last breakfast of this year!!
Probably the busiest breakfast yet! Banking £220 proceeds, plus £75 from the raffle of Kate's quilt. Ticket no: 175 was the lucky winner.
Rafffle; Kate Orr has donated this beautiful throw/hanging she made in 2002.
It is machine embroidered and hand quilted on cotton, measuring approximately 197 x 147 cms. The work was originally part of a dab Arts’ project based on the Lion and Unicorn statues on the seaward side area outside Debenhams. These are thought to be by Landseer for a royal palace but were rejected. They are now sadly weathered.
Elizabeth Blackwell 2
Video clip (by Thierry Alexandre) of performance as part of the national Heritage Open Days, September 8th at the Beacon. This event happened while Radiator Arts were finishing their giant gurnard for Walking the Fish at the other end of the studio. We're nothing if not adaptable.
With a different cast improvising with the material: Julian Humphries as the Victorian surgeon/butcher and Nikki Joy stage hand/nurse/sound effects. Judy narrating and Kathrine Little as Dr Blackwell as usual.
The wardrobe has evolved into a mini theatre that we're intending to take out into different venues. All the props are contained within. The 'shape' of the story is evolving too with Kathrine talking afterwards about her experience of taking on the role of Elizabeth Blackwell.
