Greetings, Redbricks Lovelies!
As you may already know, the bid to get funding for a number of events this year to celebrate our estate’s 70th anniversary was successful. Hurrah!
The programme has been called Celebrate and the first big occasion will be a spring do starting at 1pm on Easter Sunday (16th April). It will include the customary Egg Hunt, but with extra bells and whistles on to make it one for us all to remember! Which is where a bunch of daring, delicious and mildly maverick neighbours would come in handy…
To lead the hunters on a merry dance around our streets, we’ll need a team of performers to guide, riddle, and serenade them along their way. If you’d like to be involved, we’ll be having two devising/rehearsing sessions at MMU on Monday 10th and Thursday 13th April (ideally, you can attend both), at a time to best suit the group.
Anyone can get involved and no previous experience is necessary. If you have any musical, dance, performance, circus, poetry or writing skills, feel free to bring them along!
What you can expect if you take part:
- Learn new performance and devising skills
- Enjoy working together with a diverse group of friends and neighbours
- Contribute to our community Celebrate spring event
- Build personal confidence
- Have a great dollop of fun.
As a wise old woman once (possibly) said: “A community that plays together stays together!”
Posters advertising the Celebrate events will soon be circulated but please pass this info on to any Redbrickers that you think might be up for getting involved but aren’t on Shout.
Thanks, Carrie.
