Happy Christmas to all our audiences and supporters. It has been a very strong year for Vivid Theatre Company and we wish to thank everyone who has either come along to a production or hired us for educational/corporate work.

The year began with the Arts Council funded ‘Sexual Perversity in Chicago’ (‘an outstandingly absorbing and committed piece of theatre’ Newcastle University) before Vivid revived their 2007 production of ‘The Collector’ which played to five-star reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe (‘Vivid theatre indeed’ Edinburghguide). Autumn 2009 saw Vivid work in conjunction with Newcastle University’s Centre for Behaviour and Evolution to produce a north east tour of ‘After Darwin’ for the 2009 Darwin Festival. The final show was ‘The Revenger’s Tragedy’ which played to strong houses and, like all Vivid productions, was supported by a strong educational programme. Members of Vivid have also worked at International drama festivals around Europe and the artistic director ran workshops as the Central European Drama Conference in Slovakia.

We hope you continue to support us in 2010 with our first production, a new translation of Gogol’s classic ‘The Government Inspector.'

Thank you for all your support. Happy Christmas and happy new year.
