2009....so far!

WELL! There has been a lot going on and it's only March!
Here are a few summary updates:

JAPAN

Flights are booked, hotel is booked, just organising activities and other events for the trip. Have decided to focus on creating a piece of theatre together based on the Japanese culture and also a photography exhibition to bring back home. We will be setting off from Grimsby on 6th April and returning on the 21st. There are 18 of us travelling including junior, senior and associate members of FYT! Fundraising has been pretty successful, with recent car boots sales, quiz nights coming up and cake sales everywhere.
CABARET
The Cabaret pieces are looking VERY promising, the show includes mime, dance, scripted work, devised comedy and loads more! It will be a fantastic show. We also have two new members recently, Lois and Levi who have got stuck in and seem to be enjoying themselves!

CHOMP
We had our SFX make up workshop with Danny last week, it was great fun. The group learned about applying different types of make up to get different zombie effects. Meanwhile, Jack is on with the music and we have pretty much got Act 1 sorted now - just lines to be learned! Bill Ilkley is working with us tomorrow night to teach some professional stage combat techniques for the fight scenes. The costumes are well ahead of schedule and our Design team are amazing! The set will be fab. The tour is pretty much sorted now, just waiting for Edinburgh to get back to us about a venue - fingers crossed.

CLEETHORPES - LINDSEY SCHOOL

Our new group started at Lindsey School on Thursday! It went really well and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. We still have places left though - so get phoning in and booking onto the workshops! The group will be joining our Grimsby teams for the Cabaret show in June.
