The Week that Was

Phew! Nottingham, Fleetwood, Longlete, Teddy & Otto, Hairy Chairs, Penguins! In between we have been busy medievalising the Epico tent, preparing this gorgeous banner, making flags, signs and purchasing bunting! Its all part of the great Creature Encounter re-invention of 2014. 

If you are in the Nottingham area this weekend, why not come to the Riverside Festival and witness a host of street entertainment, including our Goblins and Hairy Chairs, for the last time in their current incarnation! 

Viva la Re-invention
