site specific Cornish Doorways shows, featured at Godolphin House,

Shallal
is a longstanding inclusive community dance theatre company open to all
and their aim is to challenge who can perform and how by providing a performance space for anyone in the community. Their
work is based on natural dance and theatre improvisation. Shallal's
productions are created by the members of the company, who work
collaboratively to devise performances which are built from
improvisations and ideas that the participants all contribute during the
rehearsal period. A range of visiting artists including Rory McDermott,
poet Sally Crabtree, film-maker Barbara Santi and composer Roger
Pinsent also work with the company on this creative process giving
access to a wide variety of skills, media and ideas.

its creators. From crows to clowns, mysterious white ladies to
mythical sea creatures, to romantic duets, there is something for
everyone.

Fripp For Homework
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Sun., Jan 25, 2015
My thanks to Sean H for sending in this link from The Guardian in which Robert Fripp's music is recommended as an aide to studying and homework. "The whole idea is not to let the head drop. Brian Eno may be an obvious choice, but let’s throw in his one-time collaborator, the magnificent Robert Fripp as another option. His At The End Of Time album is a masterstroke: he creates a symphony in sound, and takes you on a trip intense enough to get any piece of work rocking in the right direction. Check out Cerys Mathew's piece in full here.

:: Posted by Sid Smith on Fri., Jan 23, 2015
You can watch David Cross talking about the background and inspiration of his forthcoming album, Starless Starlight, right here. The music for the new album, David explains, was inspired after hearing the download of Robert Fripp's appearance at Blueberry Hill, in St.Louis in 2006. It was here where the guitarist unexpectedly played a variation on the Starless theme amidst his usual soundscapes concert. If you've not heard it, do yourself a favour and take grab this concert.

They say you can pick your friends but you can't pick your family. However, a glance at Mr.Stormy's fingers on his brother's T-shirt suggest this old saying may not be entirely true!
