Jude Merrill said… - hello Nina
thanks for this, & of course I learned loads more yesterday at the ACA opera day - great stuff, all very interesting. First I've heard of the peer review - so to be honest I don't feel I could do it justice now, since I didn't watch it with that in mind & it's now over a month since I saw it. Happy to oblige another time if we arrange it in advance. Also happy to continue discussing My Mother.. with you, if that helps. meanwhile best of luck with your R&D.

- hi Nina
I'm not used to this Friends lark (I don't do Facebook) but nice to be your mate. Really well done for the Unicorn event, and I thought you'd done a brilliant job on the opera. I'm curious as to how well it was received since it's so outside the box - did you get good audiences/feedback?

A discussion started by David Harradine was featuredMANIFESTOS (or, Tell Us What You Really Think)
There's a venerable tradition of artists' manifestos, which always seem to pop up especially at times of great cultural and political change (post WW1 dadaists; them 60s experimenters...) so, given that we are living through times of extraordinary change right now, I thought I'd start a thread for MANIFESTOS RELATING TO MAKING ART FOR CHILDREN.Don't have one? Nor did I until 24 hours ago, then I decided I'd write one.So get going, and it'd be grand to see them here...See More

http://www.itstheforest.comWhy should parents bring their children to see something like my company's dance piece 'The Forest'?When it’s half term and I scan the pages of the ‘what’s on for children’ sections of magazines I want to know that the experiences I choose for my children will be, to be honest, worth the effort, that they will enjoy it, that they will be enriched in some way, in any way, by what they’ve seen.I want to take them…See More
