A very successful few days redrafting ArtsGroupie CIC's latest show before John Maguire and I head into rehearsal! Not a bad little office to work from.

Met an iconic actor today, Veronica Taylor (Ash Ketchum from Pokemon). She was an absolute delight.
A new adventure begins...!

And here's all the games we've been playing from Sep-Nov. A comparatively light period of gaming, as we've been pretty busy

To supporters of Ghost Stories for Christmas THANK YOU.
This year was our most ambitious yet.
Sold out venues (some selling out before we announced the show) and audience feedback suggest we've got the formula right.
