GRANGE PARK OPERA
October 2011

THE BIG FAT GRANGE BOOK


350 pages on the glossy ghosts of The Grange from the 17th century, through the 5 years when George IV rented it, 19th century photographs of splendour, and shooting with maharajas when the bag was thousands of birds and bunnies.

If you have pre-1980 material please email Rebecca.

The book should be ready for the next festival.

STILL IN PRISON AFTER 21 YEARS


March 2 - 11 2012, Pimlico Opera goes to Erlestoke Prison, near Devizes in Wiltshire to present Les Misérables.

Help us find an audience

Support the 8 week project

Go to the Prison Noticeboard for the lowdown - heartfelt comments made by prisoners who took part - the audience - why it matters - why it is worth supporting - a video...

During February and March we need accommodation in Wiltshire (near SN10 5TU) for some of the project's cast and crew.

If you can help, please contact helen@grangeparkopera.co.uk

DO YOU HAVE A MOBILE PHONE THAT SCANS?


Do you know about QR codes? Are they a fad? Are they the future? We are trying to link opera to technology and within the next couple of months should have some new gadgets and widgets to share with you.

Try it out - open a barcode scanner app on your phone and hold it up to the image to the right.
