TVCT held its AGM last month and discussed possible future projects. Artistic Director, John Somers, briefly recalled the original work undertaken in a great variety of sites since he was invited to create a production to mark the arrival of the new millennium in 2000, resulting in the multi-site performance of ‘Parso
n Terry’s Dinner’.
The most recent was ‘They Dream of Home’, a walking performance to commemorate the Parish’s involvement in WWI. The aim is to create new work of various kinds and to widen participants’ experience of different forms of community theatre. Details are being worked out and news will follow of productions and workshops planned for 2017.
John has recovered from a knee replacement operation and will lead the work. He aims to spread the skills of writing, directing and performing theatre in community settings.
Anyone who wishes to help with that aim can contact John at J.W.Somers@exeter.ac.uk
