Thanks to all those of you who joined us for our live premiere earlier tonight. It really has been special to read your messages, feedback and comments on our 2020 production 'A Touch of Colour'.

The film will remain online via the linked URL and can be watched anytime.

It is a visual dreamscape of cinematic circus put together by a small and very dedicated team of artists. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the creative process!

The film would not have been possible without the commission by Museums Northumberland who dared to approach their heritage and arts programme differently . We were given the trust, time and space to create within these fantastic grounds and buildings - our 2020 'Woodhome'. ... See MoreSee Less

Roll Up Roll Up - book a slot on your sofa at 7pm on 18th November when we will be proud to bring you the premier of our film 'A Touch of Colour'. It gets a Five Starfish review!

The title of the film, ‘A Touch of Colour’ is taken from a quote from pitman, painter and member of the Ashington Group of artists, Jack Harrison, he described how:
“at one time I used to paint drab sorts of pictures, but now I like a bit colour, such as a fairground, or circus or something like that”.
Circus is a traditional artform enjoyed by the people of Northumberland for centuries. A much-anticipated day out, a chance to dream and escape their every day. Inside a big top tent the artists performed amazing feats, the seemingly impossible. And so in the summer we went to Woodhorn Museum and much like a blank canvas for Jack, we at Let’s Circus created a moving picture inspired by the empty museum. We brought our ‘Woodhome’ to life in a new way for audiences to enjoy at home. so let us take you on a circus journey through the museum so you can see us and it in new and surprising ways! ...

It was a great pleasure to be part of the Fenwick window display reveal last night with the wonderful Sternberg Clarke and an exceptional event and production team. Over 1 million reached in 24 hours!!!

If you haven't seen the performance and annual window display, you can do it now via the Fenwick newcastle virtual christmas window reveal 2020

We're proud to have been part of the local tradition for the second year running and are thankful to see the hallmark local company of Fenwick investing in the arts via this event. The stunning window display and event is all down to designers, makers, photographers, filmmakers, riggers, lighting technicians, live performers, producers and show callers being able to work towards the delivery.

Well done Fenwick, well done! ... See MoreSee Less

It's been a tough time for performing artists - all we have are these screens through which to reach our audience and community. We've not chosen this, we've not trained our live engagement skills for years in order to do this, but it's where we're at.

To help support some of our local artists, In early October we commissioned a lockdown performance to tour circus artists' homes in Newcastle upon Tyne. This film shows that journey, performing from the THRESHOLD of their world, to you in yours.

Social media interactions will NEVER give us the pleasure that we receive from a warm audience welcome, but in a digital-only world, they do give us A connection. By joining in online, you'll help shape that art until we can see you LIVE next.

Share, like, comment - keep your digital world filled with artistry!

Thank you to everyone who has commissioned an artist to create something during the pandemic
Thank you to everyone who has purchased a ticket to a live, or online performance
Thank you to those who continue to pay the piano teacher, circus mentor or craftsperson to teach them via an internet link
Thank you to everyone who has booked a schools event, a socially distanced performance or a driveway show

EVERY COMMISSION TO AN ARTIST SUPPORTS SOMEONE WHO IS FACING A LONG PERIOD OF UNKNOWN!

Featuring Freya Averley, Nat Lunatrick, Ross Taylorr, Hannah Thompson, Lynn Campbell, Jane Park, @Kerrin Tatman - Artist, Wilf Campbell, Tanya Oxbury, Helen Averley, Steve Cousins and Scribble the Poodle.
