Paul at Catherine Wheels created a video of Cotton and Wrinkle's NYC adventure. Enjoy. White has won Best Show for Children and Young People at the Theatre Awards UK last night.
There is a lovely preview piece in Time Out New York Kids for this month - cklick here to read it.
White has been described as "an elegant little romp" and having "a slightly subversive edge" by the New York Press

White has been nominated for a Theatre Awards UK (formerly the TMA Awards). It has been nominated along with Swallows and Amazons by Bristol Old Vic and The Monster in the Hall by David Greig and produced by TAG Theatre in the category of Best show for Children and Young People.
The awards are held on the 30th of October. My house has just been in Lichtenstein. Thanks to Georg and Gaby for looking after us so well. We had a brilliant time. The area is really stunning and this was the view from our hotel terrace.
Was in Neilston library the other day doing My house and i saw this on the wipe board - who needs posters!
White won 3 awards at the CATS on sunday. Shona and Craig won Best Design and the show won Best Technical Production and also Best Show for Children and Young People. What a great result.
BEST DESIGN: Shona Reppe (set and costumes) and Craig Fleming (lighting), White, Catherine Wheels Theatre Company "GREAT theatre design does not just illuminate its text, it adds to it. Shona Reppe's design and costumes for Catherine Wheel's White went one step further again. She created a white world of such invention that it could have existed on its own. But then you would have missed each intricate new detail as the show developed, the discoveries in each birdbox, the hilarity of using a toilet pedestal mat as an apron. Lighting white can be hell and Craig Fleming's simple design ensured that the lighting waxed and waned with the passing of the day, Reppe's birdhouses lit up from the inside and a mirror-ball moon threw slivers of reflected light across the scene." Thom Dibdin (Edinburgh Evening News/The Stage) BEST TECHNICAL PRESENTATION, sponsored by Northern Light: White, Catherine Wheels Theatre Company "WHITE'S technical artistry was not only a marvel to watch but was integral to the overall success of the production. From its sleight-of-hand tricks to its moving conclusion of seamlessly turning a white set into a massive celebration of colour, White’s technical execution not only proved that small effects can have a large impact but that excellence in technical presentation is as important to the success of a production as any other component." Michael Cox (onstagescotland.co.uk BEST PRODUCTION FOR CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE: White, Catherine Wheels Theatre Company "GOOD theatre is good theatre – whatever age group it’s intended for. White captivated pre-school tots with its ravishing transformation of an all-white world into a rainbow landscape. And if adults read the arrival of colour as a profound reflection on social values – well they too were totally smitten by the magical beauty of this show. How did they do it? It still remains a mystery – but it’s a winner." Mary Brennan (The Herald) Photos by Douglas McBride |
