August – Festival time

August saw us at 2 major festivals, at Sidmouth earlier in the month, and then Towersey over the Bank Holiday weekend. At both festivals we were performing as BB and also doing our Big Caper show with the Outside Capering Crew. After the poor weather of the early summer, both festivals were blessed with good weather and we put on good shows at both of them, with decent audiences for our Big Caper shows in boith places. The Sidmouth show had some drama when poor Sue Graham’s recently dislocated shoulder went again doing the Fools Jig during the early part of the show, but the rest of the troopers carried on and more or less covered her absence. For Towersey Sue was substituted by Emma Darby, who had just won the solo jig competition at Sidmouth, and did a fine job with the rest of the Crew at the Festival and with us in the Big Caper show. For some photos of both these events see Photo Gallery – 2007 – no gory pictures though!
