HORIZON GET-TOGETHER
Well, it looks like our first official 'Get Together' day in several years is
turning into a whole weekend with 2 Blake's 7 cast members directing plays on 10
& 11 May!! Horizon used to have regular meet-ups and theatre outings and they
really were a lot of fun, where old and new fans could get together. Many
long-time friendships were made and I hope some more of our 'old timers' will
come along on 10th and/or 11th May to show the newer fans how to party...
SUGGESTED TIMETABLE - SATURDAY 10TH MAY 2008:
Those who already have tickets for 'To Kill A Mockingbird' should meet at the
Tricycle by 3.30pm for the 4pm show. (Theatre has now sold out for the
performance)
Those who are meeting up for the meal/drinks/talking into the night should aim
to get to the theatre by around 5.30. If Sally's not too frantically busy,
hopefully there will be a chance to say 'hello' to her before we go off for our
meal and she goes back to direct the second performance of the day.
SUGGESTED TIMETABLE SUNDAY 11TH MAY 2008
Meet up from 1.30pm for a light lunch (or just drinks if you're not hungry)
Anyone wanting to see the show - we're going to the 5pm performance of 'The
Miniaturists'. NOTE: The theatre is very small and only had 50 seats left when
I called yesterday - they aren't able to reserve seats (no seat numbers, first
come first served) so if you'd like to join us PLEASE BOOK YOUR OWN TICKETS AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE. You can call the box office or book online. Arcola Theatre,
Hackney - Box Office: 0207 503 1646. http://www.arcolatheatre.com All tickets

After the show hopefully a chance to meet Brian & Christina before we go off for
more eating/drinking/talking.
Please let us know if you'd like to join us on one or both of the days, and that
you've booked your tickets if you want to see the Miniaturists.(Remember, you
can still join us for the get-together(s), even if you don't want to see the
shows.)
MORE ABOUT 'THE MINIATURISTS'
The Miniaturists is a growing group of playwrights and other theatre workers
interested in the possibilities of the short play. They stage a regular
writer-led event dedicated to bringing you short but perfectly formed plays.
Every show is packed with 5 original pieces from an array of talented writers,
new and established. Each piece is no longer than twenty minutes, and the
dizzying mix makes every event as various and unpredictable as life itself.
The productions are fully staged, using lighting and sound design, and the
actors are in costume, and in every respect a miniature<i> is </i>a play. They
usually play on a Sunday on the set already in place for the current production
at the host theatre.
