Year: 2014

  • Real people are great!

    We’ve been to some networking events. Talking to real people, who work in real companies and have real lives. What great fun, meeting so many interesting folk! Because that’s what it’s all about really: people. We live and work alongside other people so we should take the opportunity to revel in our diversity and find out…

  • Please hold while the dinosaur finishes lunch…

    I know, everyone is awaiting video footage of our new T-Rex puppet but she’s still finishing lunch. Boy those things can eat! seriously, if we’re going to do something, we want to do it properly, rather than post a shaky hand held camera phone vid, so you’ll have to just hold your horses! (She also…

  • What’s in the Box?

    We’ve been waiting for a long time to receive this box. We’ve been through a lot of hoops and trials – but mostly waiting. So here’s a sneak peek of the first look into the box – and it was looking straight back!

  • Kylie the Goddess of Youth?

    Ok so the last post was an April fools wind-up. But here’s a thing that’s been bothering us for a while: how on earth does Kylie Minogue still look like she’s in her early twenties?

I’m happy to say that they both…

  • Sleepover success

    The British Museum ‘Young Friends Sleepover’, where large groups of children with accompanying adults are invited to attend a night of themed workshops then camp out in one of the galleries. What a superb idea. I wish I was a child again so I could experience sleeplessness IN A MUSEUM! Last nights Sleepover was Viking…

  • National Shakespeare Week

    All the controversy that surrounds ‘The Bard’ still, after hundreds of years, means very little when faced with the huge volume of the work attributed to William Shakespeare. That the stories are relevant still and the characters so real and vivid are a testament to a lasting body of  work that have entered the collective…

  • New Talent.

    As part of our ongoing relationship with our client The Education Group, we’ve been holding auditions up and down the UK. We’ve specifically been looking for new actors who can deliver workshops in character as a Roman or World War 1 soldier to schools. We realised that with an actor in character it adds much…
