Looking back on the week...

 A Call to Home St Austell

Comments from our book...

"I thought it was a different show, like I'd never seen before. I thought the acting was great and everyone was enjoying themselves" Mark ( who used to live with Trevor!:) at St Mawes

"I liked a lot. I liked that everyone was interacting and taking part. It was very moving and inspirational". Natasha

"I liked the animals!" Rob

"I liked the animals too! I liked the music." Kerry

we had a 'small is beautiful' audience

due to competing 'beach and barbecue' a Friday night 'heatwave ' before rain all weekend!

 

However we raised over £100 for our new project.

We had a wonderful range of audience, Elizabeth and Demelza had people to sign for, the access was needed, family, friends, those who knew us, those who don't,  supporters from the church venue, Charlotte who wrote our NPO application and four people who want a group like Shallal in St Austell, so all good! 'Quality not quantity' and you only need 'to move' one person to make it worthwhile and apparently we moved a few! 

So onward to dear Trevor's Tribute

Pleased to have Leigh Jacobs with us for an internship next month so his curational skills can help set up the space.

Also a big well done to Phoebe and Lou and all in the Underworld Project, it was really enjoyable to see the range of responses to their Bat and Seaweed themes...

"Toby demonstrated his invention this afternoon at the Underworld exhibition sharing. It's inspired by bat sound, echos and waves".  Lou 

photo soon hopefully

Pam reading her poem. 

Kresen Kernow was a lovely venue for it.

 

This blog becomes less representative of much of Shallal and more of a slice, as what we do and deliver expands.

I'm loving going into Double Trees School and need to write it up our project on the website, it was our first session on Monday!

However covid still haunts and lurks, as two from that session now have it..it was a busy morning.

Loving our R&D 'Sound and Voice' with Holifield Day Centre.

Looking forward to Back Lane West planning for October residency, already have one artist keen to have space and time for own R&D, need to get Coats back in! could be a whole project of its own, keen to R&D installations ...devise Christmas Songs, develop Podcasts and more!

Meeting supporting Passmore Edwards projects with Dean and Hennie.

Oh and bumped into Josh at Old Redruth Library so looking forward to building on chats and contact Phoebe has had with him. 

We are currently searching for storage for Shallal 'stuff' props, mats, art work, costumes and all sorts and so that also means Shallal grows up and leaves home more, as much is stored in my home and its getting clogged up, as we grow and need to care for it all.

more to remember ....and film

and Zoe's birthday Dance Delivery

such wonderful feedback of how surprised and pleased she was!
