"The Waterbabies"
(2000 with The Old Rectory Centre and Edgehill College, Bideford)
“The Waterbabies” was a commissioned piece for the Westward Ho! Millenium Festival, that brought together artists from the UK, the Former Yugoslavia and Norway to work on a production finally performed in a big tent on the seafront.
“What I saw was a most uplifting & moving experience…I was in tears at the end”
Audience Member“Simultaneously hilarious, heartrending, deeply thought provoking & undoubtedly enlightening, I sat for nearly two hours on the floor of a crowded, airless marquee without once taking my eyes off the stage”
Audience Member“I just wanted to say thank you for all the hard work & enthusiasm that you all invested in working with our centre users on the Waterbabies Project. Everybody…is enthusing about the achievements of individuals & the high standard of the performance. The support & encouragement that you gave helped people grow in confidence & have a great sense of achievement. Thank you”
Manager, The Old Rectory Centre“I enjoyed working as a team. I liked making fish in the art room. I enjoyed making the water sounds. I enjoyed smacking Ian’s bum in the nasty teacher scene. I enjoyed the play so much I was crying at the end.”
Cast Member“I felt privileged to have been part of such a successful & atmospheric production & terrific team. Thank you!”
Cast Member“It gave me a bit of confidence & I felt proud of myself”
