This week on a packed Blackshaw Arts Hour we had Matt return to the studio after a two week hiatus. He reviewed "Inappropriate Behaviour" and will be returning next week, once again, for another movie review.
We heard a short piece sent into us by Hannah Puddefoot called 'Slow Down', Hannah wrote and performed, and sound design was by Ian Ward.
Arts Thing of The Week was back and Vikki talked us through her experience with Shakespeare at an educational level and posed the question 'What is the most effective way to teach Shakespeare to children?'
We heard another essay by writer Corey Hulls explaining the 9 stages of drinking on a night out with friends, as represented by popular culture characters and played 'The Walrus and The Carpenter', a short Lewis Carroll poem read by Alexander Pankhurst, as it was World Poetry Day on Saturday.
We also had the pleasure of being joined this week by two new Blackshaw voices. Emily Rae and Andrew Crane were in the studio to talk to us a little bit about Blackshaw's upcoming production of Alice In Wonderland as part of the Wandsworth Arts Fringe.
Emily will be playing Alice in the production, which starts in May, along with a fantastic cast, and Andrew is designing the sound and running the technical aspects of the show. For more information on Alice In Wonderland, tune in to the Blackshaw Arts Hour every Sunday from 6pm-7pm, we'll soon be releasing our audio trailer!
