Miracle News and Blog - Posts in July 2009

We had a sell-out show at Gillingham School in early July and thanks to Syd Symons for sending us some fabulous new production pics which I'll be uploading onto the website for all to see! We're looking forward to another great evening's entertainment at Nethercott Farm on 18 July, a charity fundraiser for Farms for City Children. Founded over 30 years ago, FFCC is a children's educational charity that now runs three farms: Nethercott in Devon, Wick Court in Gloucestershire and Treginnis Isaf on the Pembrokeshire coast. 3,000 children each year, aged between 8 and 14, including very many disadvantaged children benefit from a week away working alongside real farmers in the fresh air and beautiful countryside learning so much more than is possible in the confines of a normal classroom. All funds raised on the night will go towards this worthwhile cause, so what's stopping you? Book your ticket now on 01837 55876.

Miracle Theatre will be supporting the restoration of historic Porthmeor Studios in St Ives with a charity performance of Tartuffe on Friday 10 July at 7.30pm.  With a history spanning over 150 years, Porthmeor Studios is the oldest artists' complex in St Ives, and to this day artists share their working space with fishermen and their equipment. To help preserve this unique piece of St Ives history, funds raised on the night will be donated to the Trust that manages the buildings. It's also a rare chance to catch live theatre on the wild and romantic setting of The Island. Book tickets on 01872 262466.
