Some of the group from East – the storytelling group we run in partnership with BSK – joined other theatre companies from A Season of Bangla Drama 2017 yesterday, to get to know each other and see extracts of work in progress. It was a great day and a great chance to meet some very lovely and talented people!
East will be performing at Rich Mix on Nov 10th at 7pm. More info here: https://www.richmix.org.uk/events/theatre/east

Tower Hamlets is bidding to be London Borough of Culture in 2019 or 2020. This is really exciting. It’d be amazing if we get it but, even if we don’t, the work going into the bid will still be beneficial. Already, it’s created new networks in the borough, the research results will be really helpful, and there’ll be some exciting projects that emerge from it. On the other hand, we might win!
Anyway, Daedalus has contributed to the research and general knocking around of ideas, but the bid team also need to hear from individuals in the borough. Please do your bit by completing their survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TPMPMBW
Thanks!

Here’s a great pic of the band by Mike Johnston from Day 2 the Silk River event a couple of weeks ago. You can see the rest of his excellent photos from the day here.
