< THEATRE

We were very lucky to receive an Arts Council Grant to develop our play Pirates of Prawle - A Night of Pandemonium into a touring production called The Mermaid's Curse.

This site specific production toured to Somerset and Devon in July/August 2010. SKIPtheatre offered workshops for the local community in the run up to the play to offer them the chance to be involved in the performances. We had a mixture of children and adults joining the professional cast of actors to create an exciting event, which took over the villages for a night of interactive performance.

The audience toured around discovering the scenes with an actor/usher and a treasure map as the story was unravelled, culminating in a water bomb fight finale on the village green.
