  • 21st May 2009, more pirates, directors and acting

    As with last week the training was dominated by preparations for the Lulworth pirate event.

    A dressed rehearsal this time showed that most of the costume was ready and presented no real issues to the fights or their presentation. Jane's direction helped us iron out a few remaining issues and smartened things up considerably, we should hopefully remember most of the help come the day.

    Next week see's preparations begin in earnest for the Peterborough event next month.

  • 14th May 2009, pirates, directors and acting

    Training was mostly given over to preparations for Lulworth's pirate event this coming bank holiday.

    Cutting it a it fine we managed to get the press gang, cutlass drills and prize fight all worked out and rehearsed in their entirity a few times each. A couple of 'Corporal Jones'  moments for a few of our number in the cutlass drills should lead to some good comic antics at the event for the aidience and members alike.

    This was the groups first real attempt at involving a director from the Collingwood RSC, which showed dividends almost immediately as the acting game as brought under a strong spotlight, as opposed to the wind swept candle of our own previous efforts. So our thanks to Jane for this immediately useful involvement.
