This is Research



Seven Stars are working hard carrying out research and development for their new show The Snow Queen and The Dark Knights. They are having a lot of fun developing their superhero characters!

They will be performing their show at this year's Come On Down Festival. If you would like to attend or perform at our international festival of creativity & performance for & by learning disabled artists please see this flyer.

On Thursday the Stars will be taking a break from the super hard work as they take part in their annual sponsored walk STARS TREK! See this blog post for info on how to join in or how to sponsor the Stars. Every penny is gratefully received!
