Work made by professional production teams with either fully professional casts or, for larger productions, involving up to forty members of the community.

Site-specific work such as Wheels Within Wheels, an interactive performance on a bus going up to the Black Mountains, or Carry on Down the River, on two cruise boats along, in and beside the River Wye, or in July ’04, F.Art! (Farm Art.) Installations, paintings, sculptures and photography – the work of sixteen artists - were shown on a farm in Herefordshire intercut by a performance along the now disused Golden Valley Railway.

It’s a Cook-Up, a devised piece set in a restaurant, played to packed houses at the Abergavenny Food Festival, and then toured the Arts Alive circuit. (‘Amazing!’ The Times).

What To Do?

was created out of a body of research undertaken by Emma Pask in Sri Lanka in Nov 06. Directed by Janine Sharp with songs by Ian Russell, Chloe Harbour, Dharmander Sing, Ian Webster and Chip Wimalasekera, devised the piece

which toured the UK in Feb 07. Then, working in partnership with Funfor Life, NTW took it to Tsunami- affected schools in southern Sri Lanka.
Following workshops on day one, the next day the children participated in a performance.

As a result, the British Council is assisting NTW with a programme of work in the Tamil refugee camps in NE Sri Lanka in Feb/March 08.

And for something quite different….

Another Cook Up is in rehearsal ready to follow up the resounding success of It’s a Cook Up (Amazing! –Sam Llewellyn,The Times). Touring food festivals and their home theatre, the Courtyard, Hereford, this is guaranteed to be completely ridiculous.
