This is the third show that I have designed at the Watermill Theatre in Newbury. A rather poignant play about 3 generations of a family, from the late 1930's to the present day, based in the family farmhouse kitchen. You won't believe the trouble we had finding drab, brown lino! Many thanks to John Lewis of Hungerford for supplying the sink unit and Antiques and Tat of Marlborough for lending the beautiful Welsh Dresser.

Julieann has extensive experience of running workshops and making sculptures. She has developed her own unique technique which she shares with workshop participants on her occasional one day workshops. Workshops take place in a lovely old barn adjacent to Puckshipton House in Wiltshire. In addition to making your own sculpture you will enjoy tasty home cooked food and refreshments and peaceful, rural surroundings. Please visit the EVENTS page for details of future workshops or email Julieann to arrange a workshop at your own venue, group or school.
