A massive thank you to all our participants in today's 'Think, Devise, Play' at The Art Shed, as part of Just Festival. Billy, Lisa and Rosie (with help from invigilator Tess) collaborated to create and perform 'The Demise of Rab McAndliss', a comedy featuring two GPs, some funny pills and lots of great banter. Well done!!!!

If you fancy getting involved, we're doing it all again next Weds, 1-4pm. All welcome!!

It's all happening again this Wednesday - 1pm at the Art Shed, located downstairs at St John's Church! It's all FREE - just bring yourself and an open mind!
