        Flying The Nest         Icarus         Neither There Nor Here



Flying The Nest

Synopsis:
Flying The Nest is a squawking adventure that follows a young chick's frantic and funny journey towards independence, and his relationship with his fine-singing father. 3-6 year olds (and their big people) are invited to join the pair in the nest, where theyll learn birdsongs, perhaps share a worm supper, and get ready to take flight.

Notes:
Working in collaboration with early years specialist Sarah Argent  and drawing upon their own work as multi instrumentalist-performers  FINE CHISEL's Tom Spencer and George Williams explore a playful, non-verbal world inspired by real bird behaviour and song.

Icarus

Synopsis:
Icarus is a story about strapping on wings and taking flight. A story about what it means to be ambitious and a little bit reckless. A story about how small towns respond to big dreams. It's a story told by people and by communities, about the flights and the falls, the successes and the failures. The performance started in a church (dressed as a museum of flight by the residents of each town), paraded through the town centre as a samba band and culminated in a pub. Along the way there were flashmobs, candlelit laments, a hand-crafted pair of 25-foot wings, a live tawny owl and hundreds of local stories and flights of fancy.

Notes:
written by Tom Spencer, Holly Beasley-Garrigan and George Williams and the wonderful community groups that joined the process: African drummers, volunteer electricians, a very special rocking-horse maker, vicars, teachers and a huge choir of singers (aged from 8 to 76).

Neither There Nor Here

Synopsis:
Award-winning theatre company and band FINE CHISEL surprise and enchante audiences across the UK with their unique blend of playful storytelling and foot-stomping live music. Three travellers arrive, looking for a place to stay. As they settle by the fire, they tell the tale of their journey so far. We follow the unlikely trio across violent seas and frosty moors, through ancient forests and giant gorges, as they bring their adventure to life in front of us. Out of their rucksacks come an array of instruments, and the travellers' story erupts into song.

Notes:
written by Tom Spencer, George Williams and Andy Kelly
