SRCDC delayed their Big Lunch to ensure all the local community could participate.
Sharon Krause organised this event:
‘We had at least 30 people from the community join us today for a Big Lunch. It was a lovely, chilled event with children joining in the fun as it should be. It was also great to have Rebecca from Keep Riverside Tidy and the Nutrition and Dietetics team on board.
Thank you all so much for coming to support the event and a very big thank you to my crazy twin sister Kitty, without whom this event could not have taken place.’
Thanks also to Rebecca Falvey for her invaluable assistance:
‘Thank you so much to you Sharon for organising! I had a lovely time and met so many more people in my community. You and Kitty made delicious soup and Kitty also made me pull people off the street to join in – and they did and they loved it!!! People also got to find out what happens at Brunel St so hopefully will feel more confident to come along and use the services/classes etc. Good result all round! ‘

Notes for deaf and hearing impaired audiences
We first meet Tony at school, during a maths lesson, and he isn’t having much fun and, escapes through a daydream. Later at his family’s farm an exciting visit from Picasso cheers everyone up. Unfortunately the fun can’t last and Picasso has to go home to France. That night Tony dreams about Picasso and William, the bull that lives on the Penrose’s farm, and the next morning Tony and his mum decide to visit Picasso in France. At Picasso’s curious and entertaining home in the south of France everyone is an artist and the audience play and create pictures with Tony and Picasso. But they can’t stay forever and Tony, his mum and the audience return to England. Tony goes to his new school but he has something to treasure from his time with Picasso, as do all the children in the audience. English, and Basic French and Spanish is spoken. A school bell rings twice. Music and songs are played live, and ambient tracks accompany the art activities. “The Difference Engine” (Live Captioning for mobile devices) available at all shows
Notes for blind and visually impaired audiences
The audience sit in a semi circle around the set. There is a blue and brown wall at one end, with a few doors and windows in it. Through the show these doors open to reveal people, a bull, a view of the south of France. There are moments when the audience draw and paint – bull’s heads/faces/food collages etc. The main change in the set moves from Tony’s farm in England to Picasso’s colourful and messy studio in South France. The characters all wear striped Breton t-shirts there.Near the end of the play Picasso and Tony create different animals out of different everyday objects.
