Hi all

Just a brief line to draw your attention to our new seasonal show 'A Victorian Christmas' which will be touring England throughout December.

Featuring musicians Chris Green and Jude Rees (both formerly of Isambarde) and Sophie Matthews (The Oxford Waits), the show places well-known carols alongside some more obscure but no less beautiful 19th-century festive songs.

'A Victorian Christmas' also boasts internationally-acclaimed storyteller Andy Jennings who acts as Master of Ceremonies and will be telling the tale of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight in two halves. There's also a mummers' play which pits St George against the villainous Turkish Knight, presided over by a Father Christmas clad in green.

The cast are fully costumed in Victorian attire. However, we've deemed it unwise to release the accompanying album on wax cylinder as that would be taking authenticity a bit too far!

If you're looking for something a bit different but familiar at the same time this Christmas this is probably the show for you!

Bah humbug

Chris :-)
