I kin feel it in my bones.” A contemporary and friend of Tennessee Williams, Inge won a Pulitzer Prize for his play Picnic and eventually became known as the ‘Playwright of the Midwest’, while Bus Stopwas adapted into the 1956 film of the same name starring Marilyn Monroe.

By Tennessee Williams. A cramped tenement apartment in 1930s St Louis, a mother clinging frantically to her memories of Southern Belle gentility, a son, a poet with a job in a warehouse, whose only escape is the movies; a daughter as fragile as a piece of her own glass collection and a gentleman caller. Tennessee Williams’ unforgettable memory play and an American classic.

Let yourself go with this exciting blend of ink and watercolour. This is an ideal combination to express the vibrant colour and the gestural qualities of plants and flowers. We shall be drawing with waterproof Indian Ink; not with a pen, but using a stick of balsa wood, which can be used to change the ink into a number of tones, from deep black to soft broken greys. This provides an expressive line capturing the flow and rhythm of the subject. Juicy washes of rich colour can then be flooded on in a variety of ways, letting it do its own thing. This will be a workshop ideal for botanical painters who might like to loosen up and let their hair down, just for one day, of course. We shall explore the possibilities with a combination of demonstrations and practical sessions.

It tells the story of a manipulative servant girl and her mission to become lady of the manor. Led by Robert Saxton, the evening opens with first performances of four short operatic scenes written by emerging young professional composers looking to take their own steps towards stardom.

Combines the Apollo 11 mission with a whimsical twist involving three tweenaged flies who go along on an incredible space adventure. Fly me to the moon introduces new generations to space exploration and to the historic moment when the world was united for this awe-inspiring achievement. 3D is truly a different type of cinema. When you watch a 2D film you relate to it on an intellectual level and an emotional level. With 3D you also have a very strong physical level, the ability to feel that you are literally in the environment, a part of the story.
