Belated Blogger Begs aBsolution!


Hello everyone!  Hope you’ve been keeping well!
Big apologies for the lull in chat lately, there’s been much to do, and not enough time to do it all in!  Also I’ve been out of the office and up to mischief, so it’s nice getting back into the office properly and catching up with my usual jobs and bobs- like talking to you lovely folks!

This week at the Higher Space we’ve got a week long bungee-assisted dance and vertical wall open level course running, and it’s loud and bouncy and fantastic!  Rob Guy, our teacher extraordinaire for the week managed to grab a bit of video for you this afternoon, so I’ll slap it together in a little vid for you in time for next week’s blog- something to look forward to!

In other news, the mini documentary I’ve been working on (and should’ve finished ages ago :/ ) is nearing completion!  I completely underestimated how long this would take- the journey from conception to finished article was a lot more long and winding than I recalled- I suppose that’s because living it is a heck of a lot different than trying to condense it down into a short video that’s fit for an audience!  It’s a lovely meander down memory lane though, and I’d forgotten just how much Wired grafted to reach this point.  It’s a true testament to hard work, hope, and support from other dedicated people who believed in the show as much as we did.  I’ll be doing some more filming next week, but hopefully the video will be wrapped up in a week or two after that and you’ll all be able to look through my eyes at this unique production and the wonderful people who made it all possible.

Anyway, enough of that, I’m getting all soppy and sentimental- onwards!  There’s bucket loads going on right now, but we’ve managed to schedule an Improvers weekend workshop, and if you’re quick you can still get in on it!  Held at the Higher Space and coming up on the 15th-16th October, it’ll be your last chance for a little while to get your bungee-assisted dance and vertical wall work up to snuff before we get overrun by enthusiastic young students while we’re teaching our aerial theatre modules for Edge Hill University- all very exciting stuff! 

A big thanks to the gorgeous and ridiculously talented Jo Forrest –who is in residence this week for our workshop- for the beautiful images we have gracing the blog today, always fantastic to have you with us lady!

Right, that’s enough from me- more editing to be done if I’m ever going to get this docu finished! 

Have a good week everyone, I’ll see you next Wednesday for more news and pssst…perhaps some gossip…oh yarrrrs!

Ta-rah!
