This month under the Spotlight…

*The Groundhogs*

The Groundhogs are a coterie of improvisers who will take a single since, and explore every wacky way it could have played out. They have performed all over the UK and will one day fulfil their goal of performing on the moon.

*Storm Compass*

Love. Hope. Fear. Etc.

Some things will always guide us. Ideas that have been with us as long as there have been stories. They guide us like lights in the dark. Like a compass in the storm.
