Robert Addie and Hamlet

A while ago Magdalena Sakowska from Addie's Faction (a Robert Addie website fan club) asked me to write something for the 5th anniversary of Robert addie's passing. At the time I could not think of what to write but then talked to Magdalena later and suggested writing something about the day before Rob's first play as a director opened which was Friday March 7th 2003. Yesterday I got a timely reminder from Magdalena that today was Rob's 50th Birthday.

Puppetry workshop at TheatreCraft 2009

These are some of the photographs from the pupperty workshop at the recent TheatreCraft 2009 careers fair at the London Coliseum. The workshop was run by two of the students from Central School of Speech and Drama, on the 3 year degree course, Joanna Hruby and Irena Stratieva. One of the teachers, Caroline Townsend was also there. The workshop gave people who are interested in puppetry the opportunity to try the puppets out, with guidance from Joanna and Irena.
