Fact Exercise Update

Today we performed our Erasmus Darwin Fact Exercise in front of an audience of 13 people (12 more than we anticipated). The sell out performance was a huge success. Our performance was done at a bar over looking the canal as it was not practical/possible to ask our audience to travel to Lichfield and watch our performance at the 'Erasmus Darwin House'. The canal was relevant still to Darwin as he lived during the industrial age and one of his established inventions was a canal lift which was used to life canals (surprisingly). We also brought the Darwin house to Nottingham (not literally), but in the form of a short film beautifully shot and edited by Les. Les also but his photography skills to good use and took some photos of the exhibit.





I was in charge of the Erasmus Darwin Bingo (renamed Darwingo Bingo) which was fairly successful. The winner coincidently was Joules who is now the proud owner of an Erasmus Darwin pen and bookmark, which I’m sure he would agree, is a fantastic prize, and one he will cherish forever!



Suckdeep did a fantastic job of introducing the performance and taking the audience through the key points in Darwin’s exciting life and Isaac created an interactive timeline as a visual aid to Suckdeep’s speech.




Overall we worked well as a group with very few fights. This is the first time we have all worked together but I’m sure we will work together on many more projects in the near future.
