It was a nice post to read through. Thank you very much for this share. Nowadays hosting parties has become an expensive affair, but with some creativity and DIY we can obtain our party goals on budget. At a nearby event space Atlanta I also hosted a baby shower and it cost me really less because of all those DIYs.

MS: Naked Librarians & Laugharne Literati (Part 1)

A pile of books in the courtyard of Shelf Life This is a blog of two parts… Part One I don’t know about you, but I’ve had a most wonderful weekend. A lovely weekend. A Laugharne Weekend, and many laughs were to be had at Laugharne. Yet the fun began early, as my weekends frequently seem to these days, kicking off with the press night for  Shelf Life  at The Old Library in Swansea on Thursday, the second of twelve new productions being put on across Wales this year by the so-far-so-damn-good  National Theatre of Wales . They continue to set the standard high. After nibbles and natters upstairs in the Old Police Station where an exhibition of wire works by Swansea artist  Debbie Evans Quek  graced the walls, we were ushered down to the sunny courtyard for the start of the evening’s innovative often-improvised acts. The site-specific promenade performance screams Volcano Theatre, who here combine their groundbreaking talents with the  Welsh National Opera (WNO).  This time their chosen

One Woman Show | Interview: Bryony Kimmings

" Bryony Kimmings is NOT an alcoholic." So begins the blurb on the Soho Theatre website for Kimming's current show 7 Day Drunk . No Bryony Kimmings is not an alcoholic, she is an artist, and her own website tells us that: 'She makes performance, dance, music, spoken word, and video. Her work is haphazard, loud, dangerous, unpredictable... and above all mega-fun!'  Kimmings is one of a number of young artists creating work linked to Britain's (and their own)  rocky relationship with booze.   7 Day Drunk is part social experiment and part personal history. Through anecdote, song, dance, film and fantastical costumes Kimmings examines whether alcohol does make us more creative, and if so at what cost.
