Just now reflecting on our wonderful residency in Pellinge (Finland), developing international partners and community collaborations for our new gig theatre project which explores the joys & challenges of island life. Going in the winter was very different to being there at Midsommar last year. The sun came up very late and went down very early… but it was still so very beautiful. Chilly, but, as locals pointed out, not as chilly as it should have been at that time of year…
Our R+D work included lots of fika (coffee and cake and conversation) - here is Gerda sharing stories and memories - with some glorious impromptu singing!
Thanks to WMCA International Fund for getting us there.
More to come…
