Yes, I'm off for the whole of September BUT OF COURSE the Art Lot will still be broadcast ... Ah, the wonders of pre-recording!
So, there are three programmes to tell you about, the first being the repeat this Sunday of the wonderful interview with illustrator Tony Meeuwissen ...
…repeated Sunday, August 28 at 3 PM
Tony has enjoyed a prolific and prestigious career, and although you may not recognise his name, but I would put money on it that you recognise his work.
He has designed record labels, award-winning stamps, award-winning books and covers of the Radio Times ... and in the interview he tells how his career started and developed.
Definitely, definitely, definitely ... a must-listen show.
Tuesday, Sep 6 at 4pm…repeated Sunday, Sep 11 at 3 PM
If you were as flabbergasted as I was, at the glitches which bedevilled the interview with music-man Michael Deason-Barrow, then you will be delighted to know that Art Lot co-presenter James D’Angelo has persuaded him back into the studio to re-record the session, and this is the week it is broadcast.
Michael, director of Tonalis, is not only a master singing teacher and an inspirational choir trainer, he is also known all over the world as a music innovator promoting a new vision of music.
This show is a fabulous conversation between two music masters: don’t miss it!
Tuesday, Sep 20 at 4pm…repeated Sunday, Sep 25 at 3 PM
Storyteller Fiona Eadie is my guest this week. If you thought storytelling was only for children, think again.
Not only does Fiona share the delightful tale about how she came into the craft of storytelling, but I also managed to persuade her to tell ‘us’ story during the show.
Which she does, and nearly has me in tears! It's a beautiful, traditional story which she tells the true story of the pathos and passion.
Do listen in! You will not be disappointed!
Art Lot fan Bill Jones has sent me keen this update of the next short story night on Sunday, 16th October, and he's looking for submissions.
Stories can be between 50 and 1500 words long. All subjects and genres welcome, he says, true as well as fictional. The deadline for submissions is Sunday 18th September.
You can send your stories (preferably in the body of an e-mail) to:
He’s also made a website with photos from the last event and information about forthcoming events at http://www.stroudshortstories.blogspot.com/ .
Your event: if you would like your event posted on the Art Lot Blog ... and all for FREE, all you have to do is enter it as a comment (at the bottom of each entry is the Comment icon) and I will upload it ASAP as a proper event in the listings.
The blog is e-mailed as a newsletter every two weeks just before the show to an ‘audience’ of more than 300 ... and growing! ... so it's a great way of letting people know what you’re up to...
Also, don't forget, you can always get a 10-min or so interview on Breakfast Time [7-9am] ... and Drivetime [5-7pm] ... just phone the studio 01453. 757492
That's free, too...
That's free, too...
ALSO…it really doesn't cost much to have your advertise read out on StroudFM... it's a great way to reach local people and to support Stroud FM, a really fabulous local enterprise, at the same time.
For details, give Claire Penketh a ring on the above number ... you'll wish you did it before.

RED DOG AUTUMN TOUR 2011
“There are eight years of mourning ahead of us. While it lasts not even the wind will get into this house”.
But nothing can stop the growing tide of desire of Bernada Alba's five daughters. As the frustrated tension mounts, each holds on to their longings, jealousies and hopes for the attentions of the virile Pepe Romano, promised in marriage to one of them.
Following their successful tour and London run of Naomi Wallace's One Flea Spare, Red Dog now brings Federico Garcia Lorca's final masterpiece 'The House of Bernarda Alba' to the stage in a new adaption by Kate Littlewood. In the 75th anniversary year of Lorca's death this is a stunning theatrical journey into the imagination of a great poetic writer, a theatre giant at the height of his powers.
“It’s rich and dense, but never less than compelling in a revival that boasts some fine performances” 4 **** The Guardian on our last production “One Flea Spare”
This production will open at Foyer Arts, Stroud on 27th September 2011 and play there for two weeks before taking off on a tour around the country.
