WELCOME!What else can you do for a fiver?
Watch three quarters of a movie, buy a chicken (not free range), have one eye tested, spend 15 mins on the train to London, admit your left leg to a theme park…
or SEE A PULSE EVENT!!
DO YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT??
Alongside the usual high quality shows, this year we’re giving you the opportunity to participate in the development of some of the UK’s most exciting new theatre. We open the ’08 festival with Analogue’s new work in development, Beachy Head. For those of you who were lucky enough to see Mile End as part of our Pick of The Fringe shows in the Autumn ’07 season, you’ll appreciate this company’s exciting and innovative style.
Another new strand of work for Pulse is the collaboration on Visual Arts work with Town Hall Galleries to present the most exciting new and emerging work from across the region and beyond. One to watch out for, for all you late night Festival Freddie’s is, hac. I’m loving the thought of “hacked computer programs shrieking and spewing out their internal circuits”!! There’s a bar too!
We've teamed up with The Greyhound and The New Wolsey Café Bar to offer you some enticing Meal Deals too.
There are so many theatre companies brand new to PULSE and some returning favourites too, a combination that’s sure to light up the cultural scene in Ipswich over the festival. If you’re new to PULSE – or a “returning favourite” be sure to get your tickets booked and while you’re at it, take some risks and book for something that you wouldn’t usually! And tell me about your experience at: pulse@wolseytheatre.co.uk
I’m so excited about the eclectic mix in this year’s line up and I hope it tickles your fancy too!
Steve Freeman, Festival Director
